My surgery is set for Jan 4.

I just got my bloodwork done today but still have ecg and physical to do Friday. I feel nervous because my deadline for those is dec 14. I guess that's just me though, worry lots. Like something going to go wrong. I'm also worried, And anxious about the pre-op diet. I start dec 21...

I just want to get everything in order and on the operating table already. Bring on the new year!

Thankful I found this app, feel like there's a lot of support ❤️

I'll be a 2017er! My waiting period is 89 days and my first appointment was November 23rd. I'll be eligible in February and will likely do it around March.

I know that seems so long but the time will go by fast. I first started looking into this with my current doctor was last December and it seems like it was last month I inquired about the surgery. What helped me pass the time was getting information, watching youtube and making sure I am mentally and emotionally prepared for this journey after surgery.

>I will I don't have the date yet I'm hoping in January : )

I hope you are able to get your January date!

January 5th in Tijuana! I think I saw one other gal with the same date! Ive been so excited, but as soon as December hit I started freaking out and getting nervous. Trying not to think too much about it besides that it'll all be worth it in the end, trying to stay positive!

I am hoping to have my sleeve done in May. My insurance requires 12 months of family doctor visits before paperwork can be sent for approval. I have had 7 visits so far.

      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'. ???

      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!
