I had bcbs out of state. I did not have to do the 6 month diet because I didn't live in Maryland. I had to do a psych evaluation, nutrition evaluation and take a bariatric class at the hospital. Start to finish I was approved in 2 months. Bcbs is good.

That is awesome! I hope all is well! Hopefully they can get everything approved for me. The pain in my head everyday is just running my quality of life.

Thank you so much, I hope they do. I just dream of the day where I can actually enjoy myself and not have extreme pain in my head and I have two little girls and I definitely do not want to loss my vision.

I hope all goes well on your journey keep me posted. I would love to know how everything goes. Ill keep updating as well.

      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!
