Hi Everyone!

Just wondering how everyone is doing? I haven't heard from some of you in quite some time.

I try to read things but just haven't done much posting.

Stop and say hello and let us know how everyone is doing.

Hugs to all!

Betty

Hey there gal!!!! So glad to see that this link had been started, thanks!

I hope you have been doing great! Me? well, still working at the same place...lot of the same issues, and still a paycheck in hand (feel like a paycheck wh**e sometimes! LOL)

Started developing some acidy feeling at times. havn't lost any weight :biggrin: definatley discovered "slider" foods (very bad) seems like all the foods that are good for me, want to reappear 2, 3, 4 or more times! wayyyyyyyyy too many spit episodes!!!!!

I'm on the next month of talking myself into scheduling that fluro. appt...........I know I need to do it. If nothing other than to make sure things are still where they should be!

I really miss the days (and nights) when we all used to meet up here.

Good talkin' to ya Betty! Maybe somebody else will poke their nose up in here :)

Hi,

I've done well but welcome the chance to meet other "Jersey Girls" in Princeton area who have been banded perhaps for coffee on a Saturday morning or other day. My NJ Bariatrics Support group meets once a month on a day that is not convenient. Think its important for me to try to get together and support our lifestyle changes as a result of LAP-BAND®.

      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!
