Are you looking for the BariatricPal Store? Go now!

Friday is the day!



Recommended Posts

Ok, went to the store and bought the following for the trip, anything I am missing? : gas X strips, hidden wallet for passport/money to wear for the trip, small pillow, some extra bandages and antiseptic spray (for trip home?), travel toiletries, baby wipes, loose pajamas for hotel. I already have an extension cord/Ipad/phone/laptop type stuff. I think I am just going to pack enough for a carry on and one small string bag for the plane.

I just got back from Mexico today. Sound like you have everything. Just make sure you have enough $1 and $5 bills.

Okay, I've got a silly question - when I think of an extension cord I think of those great big heavy things in the garage - where do I get an extension cord from for my tablet etc ?

I was thinking of joining one but I was worried that they could see my posts on the side of FB?...you know where other people can see what you "like" and make comments on, even if they are not the same friends?

      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.

        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!
