I called the coordinator at my surgeons office today to see if she had received some of my faxed clearances and gave her the dates of the others I have scheduled. While we were talking she was like "Oh yeah, we can definitely get you in before the end of the year. Let's look at the beginning of December." So I heard her flipping through a calendar and she said "Dr. Kaul does surgery on Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays. You're last appointment with the nutritionist is 11/28. Insurance approval will only take about three days. Might be cutting it close for 12/1 lets look at the next week." She asked me about 12/5 and 12/6 but I prefer to have it done on 12/8, so that's what we scheduled!! As long as my insurance company doesn't buck up and the remaining clearances go okay, I will be getting sleeved on December 8, 2011! The first step to living the rest of my life the way I want to live it!

Congratulations, that is so exciting! My surgery is October 27th. I go on a two week Protein diet this Thursday! It is feeling like reality now! I wish you lots of luck!:D

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting 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.
