So I'm 2 days away from my second way in for the 6 months supervise diet. I still have 2 more out of 4 psych appointment. This is all very overwhelming it's kind of torturing at times to know that I'll be stuck looking and feeling and being this way for at least 5 more months. It can be depressing it's sad it's angering but I know I'm here because I allowed myself to be this way. The choices I have made in my life have lead to me waiting for a surgery how to drastically change my life for the better. At times it's all I can think of I wake up thinking about the surgery during the day I'm thinking about the surgery researching watching videos on YouTube google ing information or just daydreaming about how my new life will be. What obstacles will I be facing what foods will I never eat again what foods will upset my pouch will I be 1 of the people that recuperate quickly and drink and get all my Protein in? Or will I be 1 of the people that have a really hard time treated and become dehydrated and week or have complications? All these things constantly bombarding my mind and I just can't wait to finally be on the other side of this to finally be in my recruiter reading room after surgery for finally fit in a pair of jeans that I've never been able to fit in before to be able to running a marathon to be able to experience life in a whole new way to have people look at me and judge me on my real personality and not the size of my body to have people not write me off immediately because of my body . I'm sorry I'm just rambling of the things that are going on in my mind maybe someone out there reading can relate maybe not either way I can't wait for my surgery!

Yes life will change for you. I looked up everything possible on line. I had gastric bypass and was doing awesome. Now I am nauseated always. Very frustrating

It'll all go by so fast!

They teased me by having me do everything in 3 months, got denied because I needed 6.

So frustrating but it'll all be worth it!

Im only 6 weeks away from the end of my 6 months, just keep that goal in mind and keep up with good choices!

      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.

      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!
