I looked into Gastric Bypass back in 2010/2011 with Trinity but backed out. I am now trying to have VSG, I wont be able to actually have the surgery until the first of the year for insurance purposes. All I have to do is another sleep Study and my NUT and Psych evaluation (oh and stop smoking..the toughest thing of all) how far are you into the process?

I just have to meet with the dietician one more time and then they can submit my paperwork. I'm hoping to get it done sometime this year. I look forward to going on our journey's together.

      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'. ???

        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!
