I'm hoping they submitted my file for team approval today. I want to call but don't want to be a pain. She said last week it can take a week or two to find out. Keeping my fingers crossed.

Keeping my fingers crossed for you too!! I hope you hear from them soon. Maybe call on Wednesday to see if it's been sent. :-)

I got great news today! My son called and informed me that they're having a boy!! They sent me ultrasound pictures. He has chubby cheeks. lol It's a high risk pregnancy so I'll be praying for them. She's in the hospital now, since Friday, trying to get her blood sugar levels under control.

Hope everyone is doing well.

Hi Nana!! I had a rough start to the week. Battled some depression and stress but I came through it once again. Yesterday and today have been better. I had my 6 week appt yesterday. I was bummed because I'd only lost 21lbs. They gave me some advice so hoping I can start losing better soon. Woke up with a 2 pound loss this morning. I hope I'm past this stall. I need to drink more Water, exercise more and log my food. I do well until my depression hits. I usually bounce back fairly quickly though. I hope they get your paperwork settled soon so you get a date set!! I'm excited for you to start this journey too. Enjoy your weekend!! I'll be stitching all weekend. I need to finish an apron I'm crossing stitching for my mother-in-law before Christmas. I'm such a procrastinator!

Lucky I'm so glad you are feeling better! Congrats on the 2lb loss! That's great. I know my sister started walking after her surgery she never was a walker but she swears that helped the lbs come off. Hope you continue to feel good and keep losing. I'll keep you posted on my info. Have fun stitching!

      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!
