You really didn't recognize me?

So today I went to the hospital for outpatient surgery. I had to have a filter removed in my vein that was placed when I had my sleeve done. My mom came along to be my driver home. When I was done she went to get the car to pick me up at the front entrance and when she pulled up she was surprised they didn't have me down there yet. But guess what I was standing right there! She said she wasn't used to seeing a smaller me. Really? My own mom? I thought it was funny though! :D

Come to think of it, my wife did that once! I came home early & she called me by another name...."Sam are you back?"

We laughed about that for months...:lol:

I actually remember reading your post and thinking that is amazing and so funny! I thought that would never happen to me with my mom and then BAM it did! Even after she had been with me earlier- although I was in the hospital bed wearing that lovely hospital gown ;) at the time.

Yes you're right it is strange but awesome!

      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.

        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!
