I'm in Plainfield, In. I have my last apt. With the NUT on April 22. Then to insurance for approval. I'm hoping that will be fairly fast. I'm also hoping the surgeon doesn't have a huge wait...I'm ready for this. I'm at St Vin. Carmel. I'm a little disenchanted with my surgeon.....I can't get her office to call me back.

No I haven't. I'm still waiting on a call from my Dr. I'm also wanting to lose 100 to 105. So far I've lost 30 on the liver reduction diet.

I've started the liver reduction diet. Its not too hard so far, but I'm only on day 2 lol. The hardest part for me is having to eat 3 meals and 3 Snacks a day and I m so busy I hate keeping a food journal.

I've been on it since Jan 11 which was my first appointment. The first month I did have a few last suppers for myself. The three major ones were eating sushi, homemade beef and noodles and drinking beer. The first thing I did was cut out diet coke and that happened the very first day.

Cacucci did my friends RNY 8 years ago. She's a good Dr., but she's not known for her bedside manner. I don't know about her office staff.

Yes I'm taking a multi Vitamin and calcium citrate with D. I'm supposed to be journaling but I don't. I eat basically the same thing everyday for lunch and Breakfast. I haven't had a Carb since I quit drinking beer over 2 months ago. I'm going to Nashville next week and I am going to have some Hot chicken.< /p>

I don't really snack but sometimes when I get home from work early in the afternoon I'm hungry. At times like that ill eat some low fat cottage cheese or string cheese.

Jerky is packed full of protein! It's a good snack. And the turkey Jerky and chicken jerky doesn't have a high sodium content. Yogurt and cheese are always good. :)

      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!
