My Appeal is today!



Recommended Posts

Please say a quick prayer or cross your fingers for me! My doctor has a peer to peer appeal scheduled for between 2 & 4 PST. I have done everything I was supposed to do at this point & I really want this surgery.

Thanks!

Lots of hopes and prayers your way. Appeals usually go well. I am in the medical field. So No Luck needed but the prayers won't hurt. Keep us posted regarding your upcoming surgery!!!

I am new here myself and just 7 weeks post op...No regrets...I will say that this journey is empowering. The surgery is a great tool and it keeps you in check with portion sizes and types of food choices. This is the first time that I really feel in control and the results are uplifting.

Keep in touch.

Best wishes,

Laurie

Good luck! I hope everything goes in your favour (I was really tempting to write 'may the odds be ever in your favour' there)

      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!
