Looking to do a Chicago suburbs meet up for VSG



Recommended Posts

Hi! I had my VSG done in October 2013 and would like to do a meet up once a month. I'm in Lombard but had my surgery at Silver Cross and thats just really kinda far for me to drive. It would be nice to get together with others who have had the surgery. Anybody up for that?

I would love to meet up! I had my surgery October 2014 but I live in the south Suburbs,. I'm not opposed to driving a bit but it depends how far.

Donna I agree, but it looks like this is the best forum to post in. Guess I may have to attend my support group in downers grove cause I can't seem to find anything in the south suburbs

@@donnascell, I had my surgery through lifeweigh bariatrics, 2801 Finley. They offer a once a month support group meeting, not sure if it's open to everyone but you can call them at 630-261-9393 to find out.

      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'. ???

      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!
