Bunny Bandsters - April '09, MASTER THREAD #1



Recommended Posts

I'm doing the happy dance. Went to the Dr. this am. After 2 weeks of liquids, my band is back where it belongs and my pouch is not expanded. I can eat!!!!! During the two weeks, I didn't have reflux and no vomiting. I'm going to be really really careful from here on it. Although I am suffering with the reflux cough. I didn't have it before the liquids.

I'm baaaaaaaack!! So I've been a HORRIBLE patient haven't seen my Doc in years. I'm calling tomorrow to make my appointment and deal with the lecture I deserve. I'm waking up due to vomitting & coughing. The reflux is more than it should be. I'm terrified of getting "in trouble". Yes, I'm 43 and scared of being scolded. BUT I'm woman enough to admit I've screwed up & need to be better!!!

I have so much to read & catch up on everyone. Sorry to see Jay-tee having such issues.

I haven't been here is so long but I hope everything is working out for you JayTee! I use to be on weight watchers many years ago. I still have my band and I've been thinking about going back on weight watchers just to hopefully pull off those last few pounds I need to get rid of. I don't want my band any tighter than it is. Best wishes to you.

HI EVERYONE!!! well, it has been way too long!!!! 3 1/2 years since we were all banded. How is everyone???? I am good. Never got down to my goal weight, but sooooooooooo much better still than when I started. I have to get my head into this again and cut out the sweets, that is my downfall. Needed my tastebuds banded, haha!

      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!
