Good luck you two! Will sending positive thoughts your way monday. So exciting. Support group is at NE Baptist OR Conference Room on the first floor at the other end of the hospital from the center the third thursday of every month. They'll probably tell you about it at your first week nutrition and exercise info sessions. The head psychologist is doing the program about life changes I think so it should be good.

I will have my surgery in San Antonio by Dr. Patel also. Do you have any idea how far ahead he books his surgeries? Also, how long after you got insurance approval did you get a date of surgery? I am just interested in some sort of timeline. Thanks for your reply.

Are you having it at foundation hospital? Good luck. Forgot to answer your questions. Yes I did the two week preop diet and lost 19 pounds. You're in good hands. Did fine and doing fine. Have lost 125 pounds so far. Still a lot to go.

Roseib, did you have Dr Sonny Cavazos? I heard he is great. He is doing my sleeve at NE Baptist on July 9th. Day 6 pre op right now.

      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!
