Hey everyone!

I mentioned earlier that I was going to start a Vlog channel on youtube, and I have. I have already posted one video, and am in the process of posing another for you guys. I like it because I dont really think people understand how stupid I am so I am sure the videos will give you an idea. I am hoping that people later on can use them as a reference for what happens before during and after the sleeve. Take a look! = D

I like it! I think it's awesome that you're documenting your journey - it's really inspiring! Can't wait to see the Mexico videos! :confused1:

By the way - sweet ARM sleeve. :lol0:

It only goes to my elbow but thank you...It is going to be a reward to myself when I reach goals I can finish parts of it = ]

I like that idea! I only have 2 so far, both wrists & one on my upper back, but I want more! I just can't decide what. I'm sure you know the feeling - once you get that first one you just want more! :001_unsure: Maybe I'll think up something to get when I reach goal.

Keep up the vlogging, lady! It's cool to see people I "know." :)

Hi

Thanks for that. You will be helping so many of us. My surgery is on the 26th May '10 and I will be following you through your journey. Just do me one favour? Please stop saying that you're stupid. You are clearly not stupid, but brave, honest and by doing this vlog, caring and intelligent.

Thanks again.

Michelle xxxx

AWEE = D Mc

I swear I don't actually mean it. I really just don't take myself too seriously in my day to day life. So when I mess up or say something wrong I call it like that..."That's not right, I am stupid" lol. Also I am EXTREMELY sarcastic...so that doesnt help either...I just don't want to come off like a know it all, this is all new to me too.

Thanks for watching.

P.S. I am filming another video today and it will be posted later tonight..I wont get home from school until like 9:30pm eastern time..but that is just a heads up to everyone = D

I agree-you are not stupid! You are adorable (seriously!) and obviously very smart. (But I do the same thing all the time, so I get it!)

Hey, did you find someone to film your surgery? I would do it if I lived closer. Ohio is obviously not so close! :confused1:

Actually, I was just freaking out about that today!...I don't have someone to do it, but Dr. Belancourt said I could use a tripod, and that wouldnt be a big deal. Well I just bought my digital camera thinking it could possibly film it, but I dont think it can stay on long enough to do it! = [ I need someone's camcorder and the only two relatives I know that have one can't let me use them bc they will be on vacation the same time I am in MX...so yea, freaking out!

Thanks so much for the Vlog ... I will be follwing your progress. As a pre-op I'm sure it will be very encouraging.

Maybe you can rent one? Or buy one and then return it? Sorry, it just didn't work out? : ) Get one that uses a little card rather than a disc - easier transfer the data - or at least for me it was.

Confirming you meant Betancourt above? Who is your coordinator? I am pretty sure mine said that she had stood in on a surgery once - or maybe Tony could do it. He was always asking us what we needed or wanted. LOL

      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!
