Good luck, Yoda! Should be fun :huggie:

(Cloe: HOW can I possibly look like some 100lb chick in spandex?! Maybe the long, darkish hair... but... anyways, I'd never be goin' that hard on an elliptical!)

LOL @ Irish....you have an excellent memory, my friend!!

My fill went well....last time I had to wait for over an hour for Dr. J to show up .....(remember I go to the hospital for it)....and this time Dr. Y was waiting for me.....from the time we parked the car, went in, registered, had it done and was back at the car, only 30 mins passed! (20 of those were waiting in line to register!). Last time the whole thing took almost 3 hours! (and the cost of hospital parking SUCKS)! Dr Y. got me port on the first hit (without even using the fluro) and he put in .5 ccs. I didn't want a whole cc plus he said that would likely be too much. He wasn't even gonna do the fluro thing but I was so disappointed and told him I liked seeing it!! LOL So, he did it for me and we watched the barium solution (which I actually like drinking) trickle down. Good news: he said I no longer need to have it done by fluro (hmmmm....mebbe not so good...it is MUCH easier for me to get to the hospital in Scarborough than to go downtown TO to the clinic!!)....he said the port is easily accessible now (?) and they should have no problem. Plus he said I can tell them that I want HIM to do the fill at the clinic....so that is a good thing.

I really like him...he is so very personable...and ladies....yes, I find him to be very good looking.....forget Dr. C!!!!

I dooooo feel the extra .5 ccs for sure. I will def. stick to fluids the rest of the day and likely tomorrow. I feel a bit of that golfball feeling in the back of my throat....but I know that will likely go away (I hope!).

I hope this will do the trick and kickstart me again.

AND.....today we purchased an excellent "recline" exercise bike from costco at an awesome price. I couldn't believe it was that cheap....given the high quality of the bike (I know those bikes well from the gym)....so we just spent the last 2 hrs putting it together...well....errrr... Mr Yoda did it and I helped (watched!)....actually, I did hand him some nuts and bolts so I guess I DID help!

So, I'm excited about that.....now I will have 2 machines at home to chose from....AND I'm hoping Mr Yoda will do the bike thing.

Alrighty....guess I'll go have supper now (juice!)....

:lost1.5lbs:

sorry for ramblin' along ....

      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!
