Oh believe me as soon as they call me/email me to let me know the orders are in for my blood work I will be at Kaiser ASAP! It isn't very far from me. I've been checking kp.org all morning lol.

Best of luck to you! I went through Kaiser and I remember the process like it was yesterday. I thought my surgery date would never arrive. And then finally it was here, and all the agony of waiting was gone... like it never happened.

I'm a year out now and couldn't be happier. I would do it all over again in a second!

You're going to love your new life!

I Just finished my 12wk option classes with Kaiser in Fontana,Ca. August 2. All by labs and my visit to a support group is all done. Im just waiting for an appt. w/ therapist for mental evaluation, bariatric physician and surgeon. If I dont hear anything by August 30, I am to call Kaiser. Hopefully I get a call this week. The classes are great. So much necessary information to keep you prepared throughout the entire journey. Take lots of notes and get to know the ppl in your class. It helps to form a support group while taking the class. I drove about 1/2 hr to class and ended up meeting my classmates and learned they lived near me. Good luck!

The funny thing is that when I was leaving orientation, my next door neighbor was outside & apparently she's taking her last class this coming week! This will be awesome. We don't have much in common but we've talked a few times in the last 5 years that I've lived here (they've known my dad for 20 years). I'm really excited about all of this. I know it will go by fast. I just want to be on the other side of it already lol.

      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?
