A HUGE step closer to Me!!!!



Recommended Posts

If I could, I would be dancing in the streets of my neighborhood! (it's pouring rain with thunder and lightning) screaming "yea for me yea for me"!! I just learned that my insurance co. UHC, approved me after less than a week of having my paperwork. My surgeon's office did everything!

I have a date of November 10th...exactly one month after my 42 birthday. What more could I ever ask for???

I am so excited, thrilled, scared and blessed....all at the same time.

Here I am, on the road back to the me I use to be...just older and wiser!

Hey, that's so great!!!! I am so happy for you!!! What a great birthday gift!!! You truly are blessed, that was quick. You will be so very happy with your band, I just know it, I haven't heard anyone who wasn't. Enjoy this next month preparing for your surgery. Start thinking healthy eating and go ahead and splurge one last time, everyone, or just about everyone, does!! And be guilt free about it.

Good luck and best wishes for a successful surgery and speedy recovery.

      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!
