That's awesome! My insurance needs 6 months proof of visits so December marks the 6th month and I'm praying everything turns out well so I can't get my surgery before new years. Do u have presurgery jitters? I'm starting to get a little nervous.

I'm just starting out. Going to have mine done at Jefferson in Philly. Got my first meeting on 10/4 then meet with Dr foe 3 hrs on 10/10. I quit smoking cold turkey once I read that you had to be nicotine free for at least 30 days.

Hi, I'm in south jersey. I had my sleeve on 8/15 at Kennedy hospital. This surgery was the best thing that I have ever done for myself. Good luck on your journey!

Hi On The Way! I'm a patient of Dr. Neff's too (he's so great!). I was sleeved in Jan '12 and am down 108. Do you know about the Washington Township and Voorhees support group meetings? They're great and I started going when I was pre-op. I'd love to tell you anything you anything I can - I know I had so many questions pre-op. Best wishes!!

I've gone to a couple of the support meetings and they have been very informative. I plan to start going again next month.

      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'. ???

        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!
