Hope everything is going well!!

My surgeon is aiming towards the end of July for mine, although it really depends on the insurance company and how long they take. Unfortunately, I can't even submit the paperwork until I meet with my endocrinologist on the 30th (he wanted to meet with me before he gives me a note).

Everything went well for me...Surgery was at 1:00 and I was discharged at 8:00 (eastern time) I havent had any bad pain or any neasua at all; I was given liquid percocet (sp?) and that is working for the little bit of pain I am having. I am really glad I made this choice. I hope everything went well for the others getting banded today! Congratulations!! WOO HOO

      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!
