Yes. It is listed on their website along with the Thursday one at the hospital. If you go to the website, it tells the date, time, location, and topic.

That is sure a better day for me than the 4th Thursday - I have a standing meeting on that night and do not want to give up my quilting guild! I'll look into the Northland group - may see you there next Wednesday. Thanks!

I can't go this month. I volunteered to provide refreshments for my quilt guild this month. I will plan for either the SM group or the northland group in October. I really don't want to give up my 4th Thurs - have been in this quilt guild for about 10 years! Have fun and learn a lot!

Hey, I am going to be there tomorrow. I have been super busy with the wedding. I just got done with my final dress fitting and have it at my aunts house just waiting for the day of the wedding. It is getting down to the wire and if anyone attending from group needs directions let me know. We got the license and have met with the Rev. and photographer. Can't wait to see everyone tomorrow.

Hi all,

My first group was last month and it was great! I think I remember seeing a few of you there :smile:

I have some questions for you all that have been through KC Bariatric. I have finally been to all appointments and have been approved by insurance. I meet with Dr. Hoen on 11/19 and get my surgery date then. When you all had your appointment with him and got your date...how far off from that appointment was your surgery date? Trying to get an idea since Thanksgiving and CHristmas is right after that.

Thanks!

Nancy

If I am remembering correctly, I think I had to wait about a month between my first consult and the surgery, give or take a week. During that time, I had to finish up the necessary appointments with Dr. Sabapathy. Congratulations to getting closer!

I was self pay and once I got the appt with Dr. Hoen, my surgery date was set for within a month. Of course that was in Feb 2007 and there are a few things that are different now because of the other dr. leaving. I think thou that they have gotten everyone scheduled as best as they can with the situation. I know that everyone says to just be patient but it is true that is all you can do. Your day is coming and we will all Celebrate with you. See you at the next meeting.

We are leaving the cabin in the moring and heading home. We will see you at the next meeting. Not sure if we will have any pics yet.

Just wanted everyone to know that I plan on coming to the support group meeting tonite. I'm wearing my red shirt if anyone wants to look me up. I'm not sure that I know any of you except for Erika and I have seen Jeannette even though I haven't introduced myself. Maybe I'll get around to doing that tonite, 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!
