Wendy,

I'm actually in Fort Defiance, on the far eastern side of the state. I have been lazy about updating my blog, mostly because I had a set back in my weightloss. But, it's normal from what the dietician told me. I'm going to PHX on the 31st for my 1st fill and I can't wait because I'm in band hell right now and not feeling full and starving again an hour after I eat. I should have had my fill a week before that, but the Dr who's doing the fills the previous week is no longer covered under my insurance.

Oh well, have you been banded yet? Where are you getting yours done?

How old is your dog? It looks like a Sheltie, but I wanted to make sure. Ours is 16 months old, and we've had him since he was about 9 weeks. His name is Bart (after Bart Simpson) and he does live up to his name. :)

If you want, you can email me at forgve70x7@gmail.com. I'm a lot better responding to emails than the boards. I forget to check sometimes. :)

Hope you are having a good week,

~Nichole

Awww Bart's so cute! Bonzai's just recently turned 4 years old. We named him so because a) being a Sheltie, we knew we'd have to groom him a lot, much like clipping a Bonsai tree, and ;) he always had soooo much energy, it just fit him :P

I'm not banded yet. I have no idea when I will be, because my work is changing insurance mid-process. I'm not telling them and it wouldn't matter if I did so I'm kinda in limbo right now. *sigh* Keep your fingers crossed for me... I want to be a healthier mommy to Bonzai!!

Thanks, he's definately our baby and I spoil him rotten!! :)

I hear you on that one. The insurance thing is difficult even when you aren't changing companies. When does your new one kick in and who is it with?

How is everyone else doing?

      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!
