So, I've been playing phone tag with the Bariatric office AND my primary doc's office, trying to get the right info faxed to where it needed to be..... I finally got my medical records to the right place and I got my appointment to meet my surgeon on May 9th! Hubby's taking the day off and going with me. I'll get all the info I'll need and I'll get my surgery date! I'm so excited!!! (did I say that already?):D OMG... let the countdown begin! LOL 18 days and counting!!!

That's all for now! Not a major milestone or anything, but it's a first step!!

Have you been approved already? I'm just surprised you will be able to set a date if you don't have your approval by then- but maybe you will.

      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!
