I go on December 21st for my first appointment at the University of Chicago, so I'm hoping my surgery--if accepted into the program--will be early 2017.

I am scheduled for gastric sleeve on January 24th, 2017 in Columbus @

THE Ohio State University... GO BUCKS :) I have already been approved by Aetna and just had my pre-op appt with my surgeon yesterday. The surgeons office submitted my short-term disability to my work already today and I've have been approved for that as well. I think life is looking better and better and I am looking forward to springtime/summer with me being more confident in short sleeves and capri's!! One of my short term goals being off work for a while is hoping for more energy is to clean my closet. I am sick of the clutter, the shoes that fell on the floor and no energy or desire to clean it out bc I'm tired, lazy, and nothing fits anyways. I will have "new to me" clothes as I lose weight... out of my own closet ;).


Can someone tell me how you start a new topic on bariatric pal? I can't figure out how to do it on my computer or on my iphone app. I'm lost! LOL

Mine is scheduled for March. Haven't scheduled the exact day yet but I am planning on a vacation to Disney before hand. Can't wait! Thankfully with my insurance I only had to wait 4 months from consult to surgery!

Yay! Congrats

When you are on the regular forum, there should be a pencil in the lower corner of you are using your phone to view. That will allow you to start a new topic

      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!
