I would be willing to meet also, however schaumburg is way to far out for me. I'm in the city 2 miles from downtown, so if anyone is Interested in meeting anywhere in the city I'm up for that.

I think Sunday in Schaumburg will work, though it depends on how I feel, as I'm still pretty sore.

lol, I started this thread and M.I.A for a bit, came back to find a meet up being planned in Schaumburg. I apologize, but I can't make it :( I put this thread months ago but no one responded so I gave up on the idea. I still want to wet up a meet up as well before summer is over! (even if it will be a 2nd meet up for some of you)

I have been so busy working with movie pre production that will prob come out next year hopefully at a big screen near you!

Also running my mom's jewelry business and my Wrap business skin tightening and health, skin care products.. if anyone is interested let me know :)

Even if we can't have a huge reunion maybe a couple of us can get together for some coffee or ice tea?

Sherry, I don't want to push you out and about too fast, I didn't want to go be social the first week after surgery! So far it sounds like me and Skye can get together, with a Sherry-maybe. Any thoughts on where? I'm so used to planning restaurants for get-togethers, and that's a habit I should really get out of!! Maybe we can take this offline to regular email - if you're potentially interested in meeting in Schaumburg this Sunday, email me at katcrowder@gmail.com, and I'll put us all in an email discussion thread.

I was sleeved on 7/24 in Hobart. The first few days were rough. Once I got the JP out on Monday, I felt great! I am now on day 3 of full liquids, down 14lbs and so glad it's finally done!

      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!
