How long did it take to get a date after you were approved by your insurance?

I'm going to JFK....

How are you feeling? How was your overall experience?

How are you doing?

Im good :) 25 pounds down and i feel more beautiful everyday. I can do almost everything except for picking things up off the floor and sleep on my sides. I got tons of yummy fishes from wegmans and i eat 4 oz servings most of the time. I deff need to try to get more Protein. I suggest looking up Unjury protein you haveto order it but the vanilla in skim plus is AMAZING its like vanilla nesquick and their protein chicken Soup is great for when you cant take down solids but you cant stand the sweet anymore (i like salty over sweet)

Did you get your date yet?

      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!
