Hello everyone I have been lurking on here for months!! Lol Just want to thank everyone for all the information and experiences! I stared my journey in March and will have surgery in Sept! I am super excited not too nervous yet since I'm not getting sleeved until Sept. due to pre-planned and pre-payed vacations! I have blue cross blue shield of nj. The approval was easy- Im 25 5'5 CW-235 with high blood pressure. Request was submitted and got approval in a week and a half! Ready to start my new life journey and really thankful for this forum...

Lol, similar dates then. Welcome to the September Something or Others... Haha, I am just kidding, but really welcome and congrats on your fast approval. I am in the same boat, but for August. So I will be getting sleeved in September. I really hope it does happen in the blink of the eye. It seems to be going at a snail's pace for me.

      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!
