I just put the whole county down because of the three main WLS programs and hospitals in this area. Plus I am a patient and work for St. John Health System.

Anyone out t there want to train for some of these marathons? Walking, recipe swap, Bariatric cook night, we can set up a meeting place for all to attend and maybe ask local business, doctors, and other for support.

I'm getting ready to have my surgery on May 14, 2015 and I'm so excited and nervous!! I'm getting my procedure done at St Mary Mercy Livonia and I can't wait to start my journey. I just keep looking at the progress pictures praying that my results are similar :)

I love Dr. Roberts and his staff. My only regret is that I did not do it sooner. Which surgery are you having? I am so happy for you and the journey for change you have decided to take. I am 7 months in and am nearly 70#'s down and feel amazing.

      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!
