Finally Approved!



Recommended Posts

Just want to let everyone know that I FINALLY got my surgery approval! It's been a rough road to get here, but it happens November 8th! I could not be more excited! Got everything sent off to the right people Thursday and they got back with me about 3:30 yesterday afternoon while I was in Walmart of all places! I've never had such a wonderful trip to Walmart, lemme tell you. After all of the things that have gone wrong, papers that couldn't be read, requirements I had to repeat and my denial in November, I never thought this day would come!

Thank you all so much for all of your support! Yesterday everything finally seemed real. It's the craziest feeling knowing that in 50 some odd days, 7 weeks, I will be joining the Loser's Bench! Scootch your skinny booties over for me!! ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤

Ready for a chance at really living! ❤️

      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.

      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!
