Facebook ....I just made my VSG FB offical!



Recommended Posts

Good for you!

I think I might be gaining bravery--once I have an official date, I just might have the nerve to let my FB friends know what I'm doing. I hope everyone on your list is supportive, or else smart enough to keep their non-supportive opinions to themselves! ;)

I have been trying to decide whether I am going to make it FB official. I don't think I can deal with people's comments. I told my dad last month and he didn't have anything nice to say about it. It's kind of turned me off from sharing with others.

Good for you! I posted a note about it the day after my 49th birthday. I haven't received one single negative comment, but don't even mind if I do. That's a problem with the other person, not me, and I would ignore it. You go, girl!

I actually went and made a separate list for any statuses related to my wls. I chose people on my fb that I trusted as well as close family members that already knew. Good luck!

I'm 31 and I've got a GREAT bunch of friends! So far no one has had any boneheaded comments. I don't care if I get one. I'll be glad to let them go from my FB life. I know lots of folks who don't really know in person 1/2 of their FB friends...well, I have a VERY large family (over 125 first cousins) I have 11 siblings. And I went to boarding school. So most of mine are people I consider family anyway. I told my Husband I made it FBO and he thinks it was a good choice. I mean we put on there about traffic, idiots at Walmart, when our kids do great things....why not put-(this is not how I worded it) I'm getting healthy & hot at the same time bc I decided its time to change physical me-which is going to end up changing (a little at least) inside 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!
