My husband wanted me to ask this.

Sorry, but I would have switched doctors if mine said that to me. That's pretty unethical to say that, especially when someone has finally gotten the courage to come to their office, admit they have a problem and seek medical help. That doc better be glad I wasn't his patient- first I would have told him off, then reported him to the AMA and taken my money to another doctor. Kristin

Remember I had just had the surgery. His comment was out of concern with my lack of exercise & to much sitting. Quite frankly I was glad for the wake up call. Like I said the truth can hurt. I certainly would never report someone for telling me the truth about my health. He is a wonderful doctor that just isn't the "warm & fuzzy " type that some people prefer. I like the hard core in your face docs that don't sugar coat anything. Thanks for your concern but I was fine after about the first minute it sunk in. :0)

MiaHalliwell - I am so happy the lines of comunication are more open than before. Its a great thing that the 2 of you are going to take this journey together. That way you can both support one another & eat healthier together. I too love LBT & have been here for hmmm I think its about 2 years now. I spend less time now than back than. The reason is I actually feel better after losing weight & have more activites to do now:0) Best of luck to you & your sweet supportive hubby!

      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.

        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.

      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!
