The FB group should be set to "secret", and it won't show up at all to friends. Your joining, etc. is kept totally private. No one can search the group either! I'm a member of another one for a volunteer leadership group I'm in. HTH!

Anyone else having what I'm calling "surgery brain"?? I'm having a really hard time concentrating on anything else' date=' work, etc. It's not even that I'm thinking about surgery, I just can't focus. I can't turn my brain off at night either.[/quote']

I am with you, I spend everyday researching products to use for pre-op so I understand. I am really excited to not have to be in pain anymore. I have pain in my knees and ankles due to carrying so much weight. I am also over processing the surgery and the after affects. I don't want to do any work while at work because I feel there is more information I can be researching. Lol

Is anyone else on Protein Shakes getting muscle cramps? Since I started the shakes, my knee has been locking up. I don't know if it's from the aspartame or the change in my center of gravity due to weight loss.

Hey all, you may want to private message your email addresses rather than post them here...you may start getting a LOT of unwanted spam mail otherwise.

      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!
