Hi, my name is Teena and I am a newbie to this my weight started at 287 before surgery,then on surgery date was 267 and now at 5 week post-op I am 250. I had my surgery done in Chicago,Il at Mercy

When and where is the midwest or Chicago meet and greets? I just got banded on july 10th and can't wait to go to my first one.

Yes, I posted something like this a few weeks back in a different forum and haven't received a reply. Teena, I am also from chicago and would love to do something like this. I was banded 5-8-2009. Hopefully we can find some more Chitown bandits and try to set something up.

Count me in, can even take care of organizing it... I'm in Vernon Hills, work in Niles.

Ladies & Gent.., let's do it! I'm serious... these who would like to meet up... can everyone post their preferences as far as day of the week and time of the day and location. If you give me your top 3 choices I'll coordinate.

Me: Weekdays - Thursday after 5pm

Weekend - Saturdays 2pm-ish

Sunday - Breakfast time (10am-ish - NOT a morning person when given a choice .. lol)

Location - anywhere North-NW

Next????

I don't have a car, so I'm pretty limited to meeting in the city, or somewhere near a metra station in the burbs.

Weekends are best, pretty much any time on Saturdays and Sundays.

And thanks for organizing, remodelingme!

This is awesome, I really hope we can get something going, it would be great.

Weekdays are pretty open, anytime after 600 is good

Weekends are good too, I would also prefer during the day.

Hopefully we can all work something out, and yes thanks for organizing remodelingme.:lol::D

What month is the better question? like what november? give some people a chance to reach onederland and get their onederland tattoos?

For those who don't know onederland is when you reach 199 or less.

      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!

    • buildabetteranna

      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!
