I'm all for having a local meet & greet. :)

Anyone at Valley with Dr. Schroppe: you guys planning on trying the support group with Gio?

I think I will definitely be checking out the support group.

Gio has a support group? I didn't know that, I would love to go, do you know any other details?

Gio told me last week that they do monthly support groups. I guess they do one for each different type of surgery because last week was the lap-band one. Anyway, he suggested that I go to the group when the time came, just to see.

@Boofster

Hi! I go to Advanced too. Who is your coordinator?

I was originally scheduled for the end of Sept but insurance requested for 3 mt weigh ins prior to approval. So, if all goes well I should be scheduled towards the end of Nov w/Dr Eid.

      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!
