I'm sure they offer some sort of express delivery. It will inevitably cost more but that's what happens when you wait until the last minute.

Best wishes

I did the appt way back in January not realizing it needed to be ordered; and your post didn't really help honestly, but thanks anyways I guess......

Omfgmelly I hope you find what you need. Best of luck. And btw get use to the fact that there will be some very unnecessary and unhelpful posts.

No offense' date=' but we can't help. You either have to pay for the express delivery or call your doctor's office to see if they have other options.[/quote']

I'm not offended, lucky for me I have a co worker that has had the lap band and she just gave me a box and is Given me 2 more tomorrow- I didn't mean to be rude my apologies

I know, I'm just so flustered and the quitting smoking and finding this out last minute got to me.

I'm not sure what Medifast is? If it's a Protein supplement for Pre-op then can you find something locally that is comparable to it? Or call the office and see what they will suggest. GNC carries a Full Meal Replacement sup. and Isopure Plus Nutritional drink has 15 grams of protein. yes, some posts are less then helpful.

Check on Amazon lots of times they have stuff cheaper and free shipping.

I will do that today especially bc I just got lucky getting a couple of boxes that will last me till my surgery, so I will order today!

Yes, let's pretend that posts like, "best of luck" as being helpful?

The only obvious answer was express delivery.

Actually your wrong, just got a call from my doctor of other options, but I guess that was my fault for not calling them first instead of posting. Thanks for your reply regardless.

      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!
