Hi Jamie!

 

I'm Kerry, from Oregon.  I'm a new grad RN, currently working at the same LTC/Skilled facility I worked at as a LPN while applying to any hospital job I can find in the area.  ;-)  I am 33, and my current stats are:

 

5'7"

287.5 lbs (at surgery booking I was 301.8)

goal weight = 150-ish

 

My surgery is scheduled for April 6 with Dr. Ariel Ortiz at the Obesity Control Center.  I'm so excited for my new life to begin!

I haven't tried any of them yet I should because I'm very picky about flavors. I've read a bunch of reveiws and will order some trials this week.

I am so excited for everyone!

I ordered Protein powder samples from Unjury. They have chocolate, vanilla, strawberry, chicken and unflavored. I am really curious about the chicken and unflavored, I get tired of the sweet ones.

      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?
