My newly renovated stats peeps:
Journey Start 8/2015
HW 355 unmitigated pounds
CW(as of 5/31) 321 pounds
ESD July 2018
Location: Ohio State University-Wexner Medical Center. Columbus Ohio
Bariatric Surgeon Bradley Needleman MD
I am re- entering them here because Bariatric Pal Beta app for Android refuses to retain these stats when I attempt to enter on my profile.
If Ken S or any other Internet Guru can repair this--- you have my unending gratitude.😛

@Pearldrop, being in Australia, has already reported back in . Indeed as I'm writing this it's 9:15 AM in Canberra and she's probably strolling around her surgical unit getting her "walkies" underway for Tuesday.

Tomorrow is surgery day. Freaking out today. Not even anxious anymore but so very scared. Trying to spend some time with my 3 year old granddaughter and finish the last minute cleaning. Prayers greatly appreciated.

Praying for you! Best wishes and you’ve got this!

You know what is SO NICE about this website/social network? We are the Can Do People, after a lifetime of put-downs, sneers and deprecations, we believe in each other. We understand, sympathasize, advise but most of all encourage each other. Maybe the fact I've lived so long makes me appreciate it more, but there are times I'd like to envelope you all in a giant bear hug and dance around. Thank you all for being there when I need you! Your Frustr8😛

      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!
