I'm just a ball of nervous wreck! I'm in my 6 month waiting, my insurance is due to be "redetermined" in March, the surgery scheduler I'm probably looking at April or May for surgery. I was told I just needed to see my surgeon one more time before surgery and the NUT from the hospital once it was scheduled. The surgery scheduler said "oh you still have to see the psych and the NUT AND have H&P with the surgeon. I told her I had already done everything but see the surgeon once more and that I was just waiting my 6 months time. I'm freakin out!! All the "what-ifs" are becoming a bit much!

That's great! I need 3 more months I'm on my 3rd month with the nut what about you? I'm nervous as well I know a few friends who have done this and they look great a few of them not too good because they got comfortable and gain 30-50 lbs back which I don't get you will do great it's a new beginning for us I can't wait have you lose any weight with the nut?

They're just prepping you I made the mistake of getting my ekg and the Doppler for my ankles done and now I have to redo it because certain tests is only good through 30 days. But don't get nervous it's parts of the retirements everything has to be cleared before surgery just to make sure your good it's aggravating I wish it was just as easy as going to a foreign country and paying to have this done but unfortunately with some insurances they require a lot of things and sometimes you have to redo them like in my case

      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.
