Hello ladies. First off let me say how happy I am to have found this app and to know that I am not alone. I am just beginning my path to a healthier me. I have at least 3 months before I get scheduled for my surgery due to insurance qualifications. I am excited and nervous at the same time. I haven't psych evaluation tomorrow. Wish me luck. I am looking for a few friends that will accompany me on my life changing experience. Have a blessed day. Hope to talk to some of you soon.

I'm new too. Had my first consult this week and I'm excited to get started! Anyone know how to add a pic or edit profile using the iPhone app?

I'm new as well. I'm actually waiting to see the nutritionist as I'm typing this message.

I click and hold on the person's name and a drop down menu appears that gives me the option to send a private message. I am using my phone though.

My insurance was so unfair! I jad to do a 6 month supervised diet! Just make sure ur psych eval is good for that amount of time. I had that rite before my file was submitted to medicaid. And make sure ur doc test u for h-pylori before u submit to ur insurance cuz they will ask for that.

Most of the preop stuff is very specific and needs to be ordered by your surgeon - or so I thought.

Every referral I've had was good for one year so if I delayed my surgery till Feb of 2014 I'd be fine

      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!
