My doctor is Dr. McEwen and he seems really nice and says this is the best thing I could do for my body. I have changed the way I eat and cutting back. I lost 12 pounds within 2 weeks of going back to the doctor. I wanted to get started on not eating like I use to so when they say go I am ready. He says it shouldn't be very long before he hear's from the insurance since I have been on this since the last of February. I sure do hope so. I can't wait.

I have been married for 20 years and have one son who will graduate High School next year.

It is nice to meet you and I hope we can talk again.

Hi Beth...My insurance approval was so fast! They received my papers on Friday the 13th...lol...and I had my approval letter in my hand on Friday, the 20th....only one week later!!

I am in Kansas now, but lived 37 years in NW Indiana...its nice to see a Hoosier on the board (I'll always be a Hoosier at heart!!)

I'll be watching for your "I'M APPROVED" post!!

This is where I am right now. But want to lose more than I have put down. I think I would look great at 120 since that was what I weighed before. I can't wait to get there!

      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?
