Recommended Posts

Sooooo after a long battle with the bulge and beginning a weightloss program,moving, leaving 1 program ,attempting weightloss on my own...failing miserably.. Beginning an another program getting all the way to the end & scheduling surgery only to be told 3 days before that my insurance at the time (aetna) was the only sector of that insurance that had an exclusion.... Sad face!!! Then,I got the word that my employer would be switching to new insurance Happy face!!! ...So Jan13 my new insurance kicked in (IDX blue/highmark) and i was told I had to do the 6 mo diet ordeal ... Well my 6 months are up my paperwork was submitted on 6/10 and 2 days later I got the call that IM APPROVED !!!!... NO QUESTIONS NO ISSUES ... So 8/14 is my date im so happy but it still dosnt seem real !!! This sight has been NOTHING short of a best friend for me encouraging me holding my hand and giving me hope and determination that i can do this and i deserve this so thanks to all of you beautiful postive people .... Keep on losin:)

      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.

      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!
