So I had to report and maybe give you guys a laugh. Went to the seminar and I got there 15 minutes late due to work, so I snuck in and took a seat in the back. Coming to the decision to do this was hard for me. The only people I want to know are my parents and husband. Maybe later I will want to tell others but for now that's it. So the humor is I'm sitting their listening to the dr and I get to looking at the back of this lady and it hits me- holy crap it's my husbands aunt and uncle. So now I start squirming. I was trying to think of how to get out without them seeing. So when people start asking questions about cost for self pay- I get my phone out and text my mom. Needless to say as soon as they were done talking I bolted out the back door and got in my car. Pretty sure I was unseen. I waited until I saw them leave then went in and scheduled my consultation. Some of you probably think that's crazy- but for me this is a very personal decision. And it is my decision. But anyway- got my consultation scheduled for December 4- that was their first available. Hope some of you we're able to chuckle:)

Good luck on your journey!

Lordy I have no clue- but as far as I'm concerned i saw no one! It was so funny- I had to drive 30 minutes to the next town for the meeting and its a big city- for them to be there same night same dr- was very odd

      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!
