I got my blood test done :P next wednesday i start Optifast time is going by so fast. I just hope i can do as well as everyone else. Saw my doctor yesterday his really weird he told me i will never be skinny:rolleyes than he told me sometimes weight lost surgery dont work :think but if i did it would help my blood pressure ( It only goes up when i see him) but he did tell me that i could get my tt cover by health care. And he told me health care should give me what they would pay for the bypass toward the lap band lol.

Spite can be one of the best motivators.

I am determined to show health care too since they are giving me such a hard time with the lap band. The doctor told me they should give me what ever $$$ they cover for the bypass that would be nice. Anyways you don't get anywhere without trying so I'm trying to fight health care.

Good luck with your surgery and your journey. Positive thoughts are needed to make it successful. I had the most negative responses from my family and you should see them eat crow now.

Remember to take things one step at a time and do what the clinic tells you to do. If you take their advice you can't fail. Have a good week!

      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!
