Pensacola Meet Up



Recommended Posts

Okay, thought I would toss this out there for anyone that is interested in joining us ! ! !

Myself and Vinny Mac from OH are trying to plan a lunch date for us VSG'ers in the area.

We plan on meeting in Pensacola for lunch. Plan on it being a long lunch, and maybe some shopping while we're down there. He'll be driving in from Mobile, and I'll be coming from Navarre so I can pick up a couple on the way.

He's not a member over here to my knowledge, but we can all correspond via email, or phone if you want to join us.

We're trying to pick a decent place that can accommodate everyone regardless of which food stage they might be on. I think Mexican food is the easiest because Beans, cheese and soft meats are available.

So, if you're out here in our neck of the woods, and would like to get together with fellow VSG'ers, please either reply to this post, or shoot me a message so I can get invites out, and at least get a decent head count. Even if you haven't talked to me directly, DO NOT BE SHY LOL ! ! ! I don't bite (not hard anyways), and we're just going to get together to enjoy each other's company, and meet each other.

We have NOT chosen a specific date as we're waiting to hear from a couple of others. It will definitely be in January, and I'm thinking on a Saturday or Sunday.

I look forward to seeing everyone ! ! !

Not sure if I can, I am in Birmingham, AL. We only have one car at this time so any time I do road trips, I have to do a rental or take Amtrak if traveling to New Orleans. This sounds like so much fun.

I haven't heard back from Vinny, so I'll message him again this weekend and see if we can get the date sorted.

I have plans the last weekend of this month, and the first weekend in February is our 3rd year marriage anniversary so I'll be spending that with my husband.

      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!
