I too was banded in June. I had no pain for quit a while and then bang it happened. Same with the vomiting. Both not too often. I have found that if you over eat (more than 1 cup total at any meal) or do not chew properly the pain happens. Sometimes my chest sometimes my shoulder. But if you really make the effort to chew to a pulp and not over eat you probably won't have much if any pain. I have lost about 26 lbs. slower than I would have liked to have seen but I can't walk just yet as I just have had surgery. For the last couple of years my excercise has been restricted. I did hear that the obvious...excercise makes the big difference. After physio I too hope to be able to excercise more and show faster results. I'm not disappointed as the more I read the more I see how everyone's rate is different. Good luck!

      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.

        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.

      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!
