I just had my first consultation yesterday. I am in still the gathering stage for insurance approval.

A little bit about me. I am 28. I have an one year old son that is just a big ham. He is too cute. So funny and so happy. I am living in Rhode Island. I am not loving that. I grew up in California and I am sure missing it and my friends. I love music, movies, the Sims and going out to festivals. Hrm.. I really stink at intros. ha ha ha

I hope everyone is healthy and happy!

KD :cake:

Hi KD,

Your intro is better and more informative than mine. I live in Idaho but moved from Anaheim a couple of years ago.

I was banded a few weeks ago and in your position a few short months ago.

Welcome to LBT and good luck with the insurance process!

The Sims are so great. I love Sims 2. I am not addicted to downloading hair for them. I love how far they have come.

      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!
