Hi guys! Now I haven't had my surgery yet, I have to dietary classes to go and they're supposed to give me a date. But today I'm feeling kind of down and as if that day will never come! Have you ever felt like you're just waiting for your life to happen and life goes really slow to get there.

@celticNgel - I get it. It's hard to wait. I'm 14 months out. Had VSG on 8/23/2016. My program didn't have a time period you had to wait but I saw my surgeon the first time on May 11 and had surgery on August 23. Those three months were the longest time, ever. I was 271.5 in April 2016. I'm 169 right now and I think I'd like to lose another 15 pounds. (I'm very busty so I think I'll loo weird any smaller.) This has been life changing. Keep your eye on the prize. You've got this.

      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'. ???

        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.

      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!
