Hi everyone! So, I'm a 30 something, single, female waiting to find out about insurance approval- my clinic said probably by Friday... I have diabetes and high cholesterol so I hope it'll go through. I'm anxious and nervous and worried lol I'm so ready to start and feel like I'm going thru some kind of "goodbye" to favorite foods. I've been researching and reading everything I can find. I feel confident this is right for me and think I'm ready to make those changes I need to... Just ready to stop waiting and go! Looking for a good support team- I want to do this right and use it as the tool that it is to becoming healthy... So just an intro... good to meet everyone :)

Welcome Lola! I love it here, and so will you. Nothing but love and support. I am set for 1/7. The forums here are positive and informational because it comes directly from 'the horses' mouth.'

      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.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?
