I am a newbie and I made the decision back in august that I was going to have the surgery done. Well as for me It was really a breeze I schedule the information seminar back on 8/08/13 and the next day the dr appointment my BMI was at 34.6 so I couldn't get it done so the dr didn't submit it in fact he told me to come back once I reach 35 so I went back in at the end of August and I was at 35.7. My Dr scheduled all my appointments, majority in the same day and schedule for my surgery Oct 3... As of Tuesday I was finished with all my dr appointments and it was submitted to my insurance bcbs of ga well yesterday I got the call I was approved and now it just got REAL post op appt is Monday lab work Tuesday n surgery Thursday... So I have been reading n will now join in GoodLuck everyone n keep me in your family prayers THANKS

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting 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.

        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.
