91 Banders Are Here!



Recommended Posts

OMG! I've been lurking and I've collected 91 banders who are scheduled for August! If you see anyone floating out on the other boards who might want to join us, send 'em on over. Our times are drawing near and the more the merrier!

It looks like there are as many as 9 folks getting banded on several of the dates.

Thank you for the invite!

I had no idea this section was here. (I've hardly ventured out of the Intro, Pre-Op, and Post-Op areas!)

I'm going nuts waiting for the 7th! I just want to go to sleep and wake up and have it be here.

Greetings kindred spirits and fellow travelers, I too am an August Bandster. It has been a long and frustrating process but that is now in the rear view mirror. August 14 is my date and I am very excited and somewhat apprehensive but have no doubts about my decision to proceed. Good luck and God speed to all!!!

      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'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        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!
