I had to complete 6 months of nutrition supervision. My last nutrition call from the nutritionist was December 3rd. She told me she was going to fill out her paperwork and send it out that night. So now i have to wait 2-6 weeks for that phone call. Yesterday marked the beginning of the 2nd week.... So now i wait and see when my insurance will clear me for the surgery!

:)

So anxious and excited.

I am super nervous! My whole life I have been overweight! I have never been a size smaller than 18... That was in high school! So to be able to feel good, be healthy, and be able to shop is so exciting! :)

Congrats on your surgery date!

I know the lady has been trying to call me since the 6th but I didn't recognize the number! I would have been scheduled earlier!! I have Blue Cross. It's okay to be nervous its called being human! The 6 month nutrition diet is time consuming but trust me you learn a lot! At first I was hesitant about it but I tried my hardest! It's very eye opening and exciting! :)

      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!
