We could definitely help each other! Here's to hoping insurance goes faster. I was just submitted but meet all the requirements so hoping it will go through the first time.

I'm getting banded July 3rd, but a bit nervous cause my last test will be June 13th to complete with all the requirements to submit to the insurance and I don't know if it will be approved before the big day.. :unsure:

I'm nervous too and made the mistake of looking a threads about complications. It only made my nervousness turn to fear blah.

So yesterday was my appointment with the doc. Saw nutritionist and pysch too. May have tentative date of July 16. Can't believe the stuff to get done. Hopefully will be done by 7/16. Whew!! woke up this morning feeling anxious and nervous. My girlfriend came over and helped me through. Now feeling like this is still the best thing to do for me.

      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!
