On track for November...



Recommended Posts

Had my second dietician visit yesterday. She said that by the next time I see her (9/30), I will have all of my other insurance requirements met already. We will set a tentative surgery date and will schedule a meeting with the surgeon (in October).

Saying it's only 30 days from Sept 7th makes it sound SO much sooner (at least to me )! I can't wait until I have a definite date...

Once you go to the last NUT visit things go crazy fast from that point.

I can only imagine. It seemed to take forever to get from the seminar to my first appointment, but it seems to be going quickly since then! Though the multiple appointments have made it go fast...

I will finish my 6 visits with the GP on the 5th of Noember. They have all my paper work and tests ready to send to Medicare for approval. Hoping it's a short wait, my nut said medicare has to respond withi 14 days. Then it will just be scheduling waiting.

I will be having my second dietician visit on Wednesday! I am scheduled for surgery on November 11th. How did your first month go? I haven't really been super focused yet until I realized my surgery is in 70 days.

That's exactly how I felt about a month ago!!! I am just about a week out from my 30 day countdown. I have just been focusing on all the positives in my life......and remembering all the experiences the overweight me, that I am right now, is going to help shape me into the more beautiful, healthy me I am about to become. I always want to be who I am... Just a smaller version.

That's awesome that you already have a surgery date!!

I'm down 16 lbs since July 9th, or down 10 from my first dietician visit on July 22nd. I'm supposed to lose 25 lbs before surgery.

      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!
