Looking for Florida buddy. My surgery date is 10/2.



Recommended Posts

I'm starting to get nervous lol. I was so busy arranging things and making this happen that there wasn't time. Now I'm 6 days away and found time to be nervous.

I have been reading everything I can get my hands on. I am best if I know the "why" lol

I am 5'10" HW 298 CW 279 (after 1 week pre op diet) and goal weight is 180.

I would love to communicate with someone who I can go through this with and if you are in Florida even better!

@ExtracticPris2017. That must have been disappointing! I called my surgeons office today just to be reassured that I hadn't missed anything and everything was still a go. Getting paranoid now I think! Where r you having your surgery? I am at Northwest Medical Center in Margate.

@angelnrs I haven’t quite got that far yet. Just got the recommendation from my primary, so now it’s on to dealing with the insurance! How are you feeling?

      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?
