Consult on Monday... and I lost weight



Recommended Posts

I am even more worried now that I won't be approved because I don't think I'll make the 100lb overweight mark now. Sad thing is I've been trying to maintain my weight, if not gain about 5 pounds.

However I lost a couple after I started my current job since I'm on the go constantly (nurse). Then somehow in the last week I managed to lose 6 more pounds! What the heck?? Had I been trying to lose, certainly I would have gained.

Cross your fingers that between now and Monday I can get those 6 pounds back.

Sounds like me! I had to gain 6.5 lbs for Tricare to approve me and I ate everything in site (I am a nurse too). I kept loosing weight! I ended up gaining and got approved. At least it is winter and you can wear heavy clothes when you weigh in!

Well the doctor I was supposed to meet, was apparently pregnant and delivered last night. So my appointment has been rescheduled AGAIN. So now I don't go until December 15th.

So here's to some chowin' down at Turkey time....

Still worried I'll be denied. But at least I can say I gave it a shot. And if so, I'll figure something out. I will be a hotter version of me before my husband comes back from the sandbox, one way or another!

When is your hubby coming back home. I am glad those days are over. Mine was always a bear about a month before he left and a month after he returned...and then he would turn around and go again! 8 trips!

      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?

        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.
