Dr. Aceves week of Sept 28th!



Recommended Posts

Hello all, as most of us are aware Dr. Aceves will have his hands full of VST'ers next week. When I started this journey I was planning on traveling alone...now with my fellow VST'ers I don't feel as though I am going to be there alone at all. Would you please mind posting your arrival dates so that we know who we can find and when. I know there are numerous posts, but thought now that it is "crunch" time this might be easier to get a clear picture of who is where and when :thumbdown: so we can offer our support to one another. Also, if you don't mind loaning items to others, such as movies, please list those. I myself will be taking Pretty Woman, Shrek, Step Brothers and a few others yet to be determined.

Arrivng Monday 9/28

Departing Friday 10/2

I can't "weight" for this to all be over so I can start my NEW LIFE! :confused1:

Hey Gonna!

I'm arriving Monday the 28th also, but late (arr Canadian airlines), leaving Friday. I'll be the large short gal with longish brown hair and a very bemused expression. I will be bringing my laptop and probably some books. Anyone into online games?

Ivy what time are you arriving, are you going to be there by 1:00 for the drive with Ernesto to Mexicali? If so I will try to meet you over at your gate and then we can find Ernesto together at baggage. What online games do you play? Look forward to meeting you Monday.

I hope so! My flight arrives at 12:45. I'm arriving at..I don't know what gate. The airline is WestJet, flight WS 860 if that helps? My Dad might even be with me, last minute family turnaround, awesome! They aren't in favour of the surg but I want to get healthy BEFORE I get sick from being so heavy.

I'm really into world of warcraft. I may be a tad geeky. :thumbup:

We WILL NOT leave without you! That would be great if your Dad came with you, my parents weren't supportive either but understand now and actually are watching my son and then bringing him home from IL when I get home and had a few days to rest and recoup in my quiet house.

See you Monday, if I'm not at the gate I'm at baggage with the keys so Ernesto can't take off - LOL

I am very excited! I actually got my suitcase out to pack today - I think Ky.hen has been planning on her packing details for quite awhile. I am really looking forward to this, I haven't had anytime to be nervous but I'm sure once I am on the plane it will hit me. I feel like I'm going to camp - LOL

      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!
