October Surgery Dates



Recommended Posts

My surgery is Officially October 9th. This whole process has been so quick and painless! My insurance company has been fantastic. My first surgeon appointment was September 10th' date=' I met with the dietician and psychologist that same day. My info was submitted to insurance September 13th and I was approved September 20th. Super exited and thankful timing worked as it did.these boards have been super helpful and I look forward to losing b with all of you![/quote']

I wish mine was painless LOL. Well it's been painless but just takes forever. I had to do the 6 months supervised diet and the way my insurance is it has to be consecutive so actually it's 7 months. I go on the 4th to pcp to get final weigh in

Saw my surgeon this morning and he says im doing great, & we both cant wait till the 8th, he says im the perfect canidate for this surgery. I love my surgeon he's really down to earth and very easy to talk to, and it's a added plus that he knows all of my other doctors so they all have been working well together to get my surgery on it's way. 11 days to go and I cant wait.:)

So I started to have a little panic attack today. It sounds silly but I'm kind of grieving over my favorites foods that I will no longer be able to eat. (chocolate and Mexican Food). I am way more excited about the surgery and all the positive benefits to my life. But also sad that I will be losing my Comfort foods. Anyone else having this feeling?

A little bit.... I start my self inflicted liquid diet tomorrow and can't decide if I want Chinese or chicken wing for my last solid lunch for 2 months.

I know it's not forever so that is helping with me reasoning with myself.

Chinese is good but a lot of sodium which will make you hold on to Fluid for days!! I know October 1st olive garden is opening up so on the 4th after my final weigh in my last supper will be there

Its been 7 years since I went there so really looking forward to it. I love the salad mainly. And I am not a drinker at all but when I went last time my aunt purchased a pitcher of some kind of wine with a bunch of real fruit in it. And that's what I am getting lol

I went with the Chinese food :) house special chicken and cream cheese wontons yummy!

Crab ragoons that's what we call the cheese wontons and they are my favorite. I love Chinese but the last couple times we ate there we got sick. So haven't been in a long long while

It was probably sangria that is usually red wine with fruit in it served over ice

      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!
