That should not mess you up at all. You should still be approved for the surgery. Just asking ? How much have you gained? Make sure you work out eat healthy and do what's necessary so that you can get this surgery. Come your goal is to live life

It depends on your insurance, I think most do want to see an overall loss but since you did well for the first 3 weeks it will probably be okay. All you can do is ask right?? Best of luck to you!

Youbreally should bebok with that and if that is what you gained you can easily take them 5lbs off. With walking cutting sugar and bread out. But I don't believe that will mess you up at all. Because actually me working at a bariactric clinic is what we want to see is you get the weight off and when you do gain a little back we see you can not do it on your own that you do need the surgery. The surgery is really up to the surgeon it's what he or she tells the insurance company , it's what they send in to the insurance company. But I know you got this you won't be denied due to this

      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!
