Hey guys, havent been on in awhile and wanted to chat with everyone. My surgery is now only less than 5 weeks away! Got the call from the surgeons office today, scheduled bloodwork for tomorrow, upper GI and chest Xrays for next tuesday, Surgeon one on one next wednesday!

Next wednesday will be exactly 4 weeks before surgery.

You guys are gunna laugh but I have been scared to DEATH that i am going to get pregnant before my surgery. Just started my TOM and was bouncing off the walls happy for it! hahaha.

I only have one more month to get through and hopefully i dont get pregnant. My grandmother said "Lauren, you do know how you get pregnant right? it shouldnt be that hard to stop it."

Ha ha silly grandma, its been a long time since she was 21 and had a sexy husband! lol

anyway, check out my latest movie on youtube, and all 7 from the begining till now. here is the link to the latest one.

Love you all, look forward to hearing from you!

Lol it's great that your excited, but why are you so nervous about getting pregnant? Cuz of that fact that you'd have to postpone fills?

I am right there with you!!!! I found out today that my surgery is scheduled for 7/7! I've already done the chest xray, upper gi, etc. All i will need to do is pre-op stuff which is scheduled for 7/2. Not sure what that entails - but i am sooooo excited and ready for this next step!

no, because then id have to postpone the surgery! I dont mind getting pregnant after, but before would be an issue.

Yeah I suppose lol. Although I did hear about one woman that was pregnant during surgery and still had it,and then I was talking to a woman on the chat who had surgery over a year ago and had only just had her first fill because she got pregnant straight after surgery. Either way good luck =)

      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.

        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.

      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!
