I am new to the forum. I had my intake appointment on Friday and I have already been through the 6 month supervised diet. Does anyone know how long it takes KY State Humana to approve? Any comments are appreciated. I am so excited to hopefully get this journey started soon.

I will be going to HMH, also. Dr. Oldham is who I am seeing. Good luck with your journey, too.

I live in Louisville, I had my surgery at Floyd Memorial in New Albany, In. I have Humana and it was a 6 month supervised weight history for me. My surgery was 9 moths ago. I have lost 55 lbs. I am happy that I did it! I have to keep reminding myself that it is just a tool! Good Luck!

GO CATS!:)

Good going. I love hearing people's results - it makes me more excited than ever! I spoke with my office Thursday and they said they would submit my paperwork on Monday and I should know no later than Thursday. I have been through the 6 month diet already. 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.

      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!
