Hey y'all! I haven't been on in a while because I got down about getting approved. All my test results came back ok except my gallbladder and I just knew that my insurance was going to turn me down. I got a call Tuesday and I was approved and they scheduled me for Oct 3rd. I'm nervous because they wanted to get me in quick because my gallbladder is bad. So now I'm trying to think of a game plan. My husband says I need to chill out. But I like to plan ahead. It's not like I have forever. I haven't bought anything as far as my liquid diet. I need to make a list. I suddenly have a need to nest or clean out things I don't want...what is that about?!? Anyways thanks for listening out there it's tough because even though I have people supporting me close by, I feel so alone in this....currently 247/5'2"

i did the nesting thing too! lol do what you feel like you need to do. everything will be fine. try not to worry so much. if you do forget something, you have someone that can help you, and go get it for you! i did everything with the help of my amazing 4 year old daughter. she was my only help, but she was wonderful! if i can get through this with no adult help, i think you will breeze right through! good luck and relax a bit! :)

      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.

      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!
