Waiting For Approval



Recommended Posts

I've completed everything required. I wanted to be sleeved before the year was over but hoping it will be done in January. Hopefully, I will be approved and receive a date before the year ends.

Congrats of getting through all of your pre-op requirements. My approval took less than a week but it was the longest week of my life! LOL

What a great way to start out 2014. And just think of where you'll be ringing in 2015 in a year's time. Good luck!

I am also waiting for my approval. I was told it could be up to 2 week before I hear back from anyone. It has been two days and I have never felt more nervous in my life. I'm also very anxious about it because as it stands right now, the only people in my life who are supporting me are the ones who have gotten WL surgery before. (2 people) everyone else including my best friend and mother are pushing hard for me not to do this. If I get approved it's only a matter of time before I am heathy for the first time in my life. I feel your pain. And it feels nice to know that there are others out there who feel mine. -Dylan

It's been two days for me also. Everyone been telling me I'm not big but maybe I carry it well. I'm 276 and only 5'6, I think that's pretty big knowing in only pounds away from 300. I've been told not to do it by many but this is what I want.

Congrats on gettng through the prelim stuff....hopefully you'll hear something very soon!! I just got my approval today, and it's such a relief when you get that call!! Now I'm just waiting for the surgery date. My surgeon is taking the first two weeks of the year off, so I know it won't happen until sometime after that.

Congrats again, and I wish you the very best!!

      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?
