It feels great! Everything is just so full of potential right now lol...

I'm not just doing this for cosmetic reasons--although those are important too :thumbup:

I want to be a special agent with the FBI and I'm learning another language, going back to school for my SECOND master's, and I paid of ALL my credit cards. But I realized a couple months ago that it'll all be for nothing if I can't pass a stinkin PFT :thumbdown:!!

Sooooo...I figured I'm not gonna get done in 13 months (about length of application process) what I haven't been able to do in 13 years without a little help. So wish me good providence; I am SO READY!! :blushing:

I got my approval letter recently also and it is such a relief knowing that all of the appointments I have had for the past six months wouldn't be a waste (in a manner of speaking).

I am also scheduled for surgery now on May 19, 2010.

      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!
