I just got off the phone with the insurance company and they did approve me today. Now I have to wait until I get the letter and wait to be scheduled. I talked to the doc's office and they will be scheduling me for pre-op as soon as they get the approval letter. But we are shooting for 8/1:eek::eek::frown::crying: Guess I better get started on my pre-op diet.....

SouthernGirl,

I am doing the happy dance for you in my chair at work !!!!:unsure:

You go girl...

Curves~

Thanks! I am so happy but feeling rushed now. I just found out UHC has set a date for 7/30 for the surgery. That gives me almost no time to do pre-op and no time for pre-op tests. :eek:

I did find out that the date of 7/30 is just the date the doc's office will give the insurance company so for now we are waiting for the doc's office to get their copy of the letter or if I get mine first I can fax it in so I can get the actual date. I already started my pre-op diet so I am ready.

      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?
