Sorry for the delayed response. I'm new to the boards and a couple days after I posted, my computer went down during a storm.

hi, welcome.

Thank you for the warm welcome.

Hi there. What area are you from? I'm originally from the Fremont/Lincoln area myself.

I'm from the Beatrice area south of Lincoln.

Glad your computer is back up and running.

Do you have the lapband or are you researching it at this point? Do you have any questions?

I'm no expert but I'd be glad to help in any way I can.

hello i am new also. scheduled to be banded 8/13/08

Welcome & good luck.

Glad your computer is back up and running.

I still haven't gotten my computer fixed at home - I'm just using my work computer over my lunch.

I do not have the lapband, but I do have an appointment in November.

That was the soonest they could get me in.

However, I did fill out all the paperwork they sent me so if there is a cancellation, my appointment will move up.

Good Luck SoccerMom!

I had to wait several months myself. Some clinics talk about patients having a "Last Meal". But I think the hardest part of the extended wait for me was feeling like I had to go on some sort of Farewell to food Tour! Honestly though I can't say there is one item I ate in the run-up to the band that I either can't eat now or just plain don't want to anymore.

Again good luck and glad you found this site. Its been a real blessing to me to have such a large community of fellow bandsters.

They've moved up my consultation appointment from November 14th to August 15th!

That's next week. I'm so excited.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
