My nut said that plastics was not Covered under my blue cross blue shield insurance.

My insurance covers it under certain criteria which this far I would be covered.

Wish there was a magic pill or whatever to make this whole date crap not so very craptastic. But at least we can chat with eachother.

I'm single too and it kind of sucks and kind of doesn't. It sucks when you're lonely and you just want "your person"' date=' the one that is yours and you share the highs and lows of life with. It doesn't suck when you have to hear all the horror stories from others about the sh*tty side of dating.

However, better a sh*tty day in paradise than working right? Lol.

And it's all well and good that I'm under 200 now, down 117 since surgery (11/20/12) but try still being almost 6 feet tall. I will NEVER be petite and guys want small, which I cannot change my height so that leaves me S.O.L.

And BTW acting nurse...you should have no problem whatsoever. Very handsome indeed.[/quote']

I hear ya. My married friends seem to think Im living the life...Sex and the City style. I do go out from time to time and I really enjoy owning all pf my time, but there are those moments when it just gets rough!

On another note, by now acting nurse probably has a girlfriend. Lol.

I am finally confident enough with myself that I have started to date again. WOW! Now that I am loosing weight, I am finding men that want a full figured woman, and the fact that I am loosing weight and plan on continuing to do so is a deal breaker to them!!! Really???? Has anyone else experienced this?

I've dated many guys who aren't into thin women. It's not really uncommon

It's because I said you should have no problem getting a lady. You are very handsome and seem very nice from the posts you make. So it's assumed you must have someone.

I've been single for over 10 years, and I am completely aware of the fact that while some of it has to do with my weight, quite a bit also has to do with my attitude toward men (distrust, bitchiness, etc).

I've tried online dating to no avail...out here in the Bay Area, super-skinny gals get all of the attention. My online dating experiences have either led to socially awkward guys who are afraid to look at me over dinner (and then want to split the bill) or guys who act like they're looking for a relationship, then end up wanting sex with a fat chick because our low self-confidence tends to make us an easy lay. Apologies for the bluntness, but this has happened more than once.

I was sleeved on 8/19 and am working hard not only on getting healthy, but also adjusting my attitude toward men. It's very difficult to change your thinking when you've literally never had an experience with men your age where they haven't ignored you or treated you poorly. I do want a relationship, and I love being someone's girlfriend...it's just a matter of changing my state of mind. It'll be tough, but I'm up for the challenge! :)

Dating just plain sucks. Online dating was an epic fail for me. Most guys I meet are tools and I work with preschool kids all day. I don't meet many people my age that way. So, for the time being I'm doing my own thing and if something comes a long I will take the chance then.

      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!
