What a weekend! Took 3 hours to put together my new grill on Saturday, but had some of the best kebobs ever.... chicken breast with 4 different colored bell peppers, onions and mushrooms. We also built a fire in our fire pit for the kiddos to roast marshmallows.... no matter how badly I wanted one, I held back. Honestly, I was having such a good time watching them that I didn't think about it much.

What did everyone else do this weekend?

I have my last nut appointment tomorrow and then have to start getting my tests done within 30 days of surgery. My date is 6/3. I've tried not to lose too much weight within the 6 months because my nut said insurance will not approve you if they see you can do it without the surgery. Going on vacation 2nd week of May and gonna enjoy myself before I have to come home to a liquid diet. Getting nervous every day it gets closer

Ya some people on here told me I had to be losing during my 3 mo preop so I asked my wls place. They said I should be maintaining, if I lose then the insurance will just say ya she can do it without surgery then.

My doctor said I could lose but not gain. Would any of you all be interested in joining if I started a Facebook group? I saw one on here but I messaged her weeks ago to join and never got a reply back. I thought since we were all within a couple months that I might start one for us. Let me know if you are interested.

I would be interested, but I need to join it if it's a "secret group," I think. People can see what the group is if it's Closed. Or maybe name it something that doesn't sound Bariatric-ish...??

Not sure if that makes sense?

I was going to make it secret because I have seen where some people arent telling people about their surgery. I was going to make it secret and people can message me their email address so I can add them. I need at least one person so I can start it though.

      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!
