I feel like everyone on here has been scheduled for months! My doctor gets you in within a few weeks once everything is settled. I would actually have had it in July but I am dealing with work short term disability. I swear that is the worst part! The tests were fine, I didnt have to do any 6 month plan. Insurance approved it within like 3 days, but its short term disability! Seriously agravating. But I am also in a musical that ends on July 29th so I have to wait till my contract for that ended anyways :)

I'm in the same situation. I had a record of weight for six months and insurance approval in less then a week. Could have the surgery in early June. I'm a teacher and waiting for summe school to end. We are very lucky. Some have to wait months for insurance to deny them and go through appeals out get it done out of state or in Mexico. Good luck to you.

Hi all! I am the very last of the month I see! August 31 with Dr. Kelly in MX. Not a friendly office environment so time off work is difficult - I have to use the labor day holiday for one of my days. Sure hope I'm up to returning ASAP because I don't have a choice.

I feel so behind reading all of your posts, I am truly not thinking about it nearly so much and had not planned to be ordering the Protein or packing until a week or so out! Or in my case ordering online as I sit in my bed post-op! :)

Not sure yet if my husband will be joining me, I waiver on wether or not I even want him to, just that I want him to want to!

I'm glad to meet you all!

      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!
