Hi, I live in Memphis, TN & I've completed every prerequisite for wls. I had psych eval with Dr. Patricia Kelley. Have any of you? What was the outcome? Did you pass or fail?

She is very nice and I passed her requirements. Just be honest with her. She is understanding. Come to the meeting this Tuesday at St. Francis hospital at 6:30pm

It's the group Dr. Kelley used to lead. It is now peer lead in the St. Catherine room. 630 to 730. You get to ask others that have had the surgery over a year ago questions. It's all questions about anything pertaining to the surgery. Dr. Weaver did mine as well.

I have Dr. Weaver as well. I've heard she is the best! Silly but I dislike that she has so many patients that my pre-op appointment is scheduled 6 weeks away & my surgery probably won't be until end of April (lol). I was hoping to have it done middle of March when I'd have the most help available to me. Oh well. Still excited about this journey. I wish you all the best. Hope I'll get a chance to meet at one of the meetings. I'm going on the 6th.

Hey there, how are you doing?

Oh girl I am great except I had to be rushed to the ER yesterday in major pain. The CT scan showed a 4mm kidney stone that's on the move from the kidney to the bladder. The good news is that the blood work showed all my Vitamin levels and Protein levels were great. How are you?

Oh no! Thank goodness you are ok now. Did they say how you got it? I'm doing good. I'm 10 pounds from my goal ( I've changed it as I don't think I need to lose as much as I originally thought). So just trying to stay focused and follow the plan.

No they didn't. But I googled kidney stones after gastric bypass and it said it was pretty common after the bypass.

      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!
