Interested in doing a weekly call-in for supporting each other?



Recommended Posts

I wanted to see if there was any interest for me hosting a weekly dial-in phone number where we could all talk and discuss our Success, Struggles and support each other through his weight loss journey. Let me know if you are interested and I will set something up because I personally need 300% support/help fighting my demons to learn how to be successful in weight loss.

Yes not video however. I have a conference line I use for work that we could leverage to help each other out.

I think it would be good if we did one with a limited number of people on there- maybe 10-12? I'm afraid if we got too many it would just be chaos.

Yes I agree. I wasn't sure how many are even interested in doing this to begin with. If a lot of people responded I was going to do several options to keep things small and controllable.

I'd love to be part of this. I have no real-life support group where I live; my surgeon/ the hospital did not have one so I only have LBT (and people IRL but they aren't bandsters). I'm overseas but my phone line gives me free calls worldwide.

For the ones that are interested in a call can you send me a private message that has your email address listed so I can send you the call in information? I don't want to publically post it so we can keep the group to a controllable amount. Thanks!

Hi everyone - I haven't forgotten you just had to go on the road for work. It looks like my best days to host a call due to my new project are Tues or Weds evenings at 6:30 or 7 on PST. Is that too late for everyone? I might be able to do mid day Fri as well but won't have that confirmed for another week until I get my new schedule worked out. Let me know what day works best and we will get this scheduled to start next week. Look forward to supporting each other.

      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!
