Finally got a date!



Recommended Posts

Hello I finally got my surgical date it's about time I did my second round of six-month appointments the nutritionist meetings everything I was told that I needed other appointments to finish my six-month schedule of appointments but that wasn't true they made a mistake and I had to make unnecessary appointments from the dietitian for them look at the records that already had been completed. I was given December 18th!!!! Yeahhhh finally after two failed lap bands i can't wait to get the bypass!!!! Hopefully at 52 years old I will heal properly and be able to go to work quick as I'm the only provider in my house. Husband has cancer and can't work and two of my youngest in college and beauty school..... Any one around my age with good results??? I'm also starting menapause

      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!
