Good evening! I am new here and have loved reading all the posts! I went to a seminar a few weeks ago. I have my first appointment with the nurse, nutritionist and egd on Tuesday of next week. My pcp suggested I look in this as my bmi is 39, have high blood pressure and have failed many diet attempts, even with pills prescribed by dr. I loose weight and then put it all back on plus. I am ready to hop off the diet roller coaster! Anxious for my appointment on Tuesday. Looking forward to getting to know you!

Great Luck to you..It's a long journey but definitely was worth it. I still can't believe that in less than two weeks my life will change. I like reading these stories also. It makes me look forward to everything

I agree that some people have a longer journey's than others. I started in March and have my surgery at the end of this month. I wish you the best of luck!

      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'. ???

        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!
