Lisa,

I'll be there and would be happy to be your buddy. I"m new to all this, and just learning about my options.

My name is Nora, and I'll be wearing a white t, black floral skirt, and black and white sandals.

See you tonight - save me a seat.

Ok Nora, I will look for that skirt! If you spot me first, I'm a blonde college student with light jean capris and a colorful tank top!

Hope we can find each other somewhere. I've been researching this since February and a frequent this site so I am actually very knowledgable on the whole thing, especially the insurance part since i've gone through three different types!

I did stay overnight at Rose, my surgery was late in the afternoon. I had great caregivers. You are going to do just great.

Seems just a short time ago that I went to Dr. Snyder's seminar. Now I am banded and I am so happy that I made the decision to have him do my surgery. My experience with him has been all good. And I really like Amanda, the person who does the fills.

I think most of Dr. Snyder's staff are lapbanders. Successful lapbanders at that.

I don't have any of the complications I read about on this board. I am not hungry. Not in any pain. I know what to do, what to eat, am losing weight, and feel great. The other thing I like is the ongoing support and classes.

Lisa,

I'm so glad we found each other at the seminar! I am very excited, and have an appointment with Dr. Kirshenbaum for a consult on 8/8. Please keep in touch and let me know what's going on with you!

Thanks everybody for the reassurance about good experiences with Dr. K.

How is it working for everybody in social situations? Do other people comment on what or how much you are eating?

Also, do you feel the port much, or is it visible under the skin once you reach your goal weight?

Thanks all.

Nora, I had a great time, and I scheduled my consult today, but they are very backed up as you can see by my signature. Good luck and keep in touch!

No one really seems to notice how little I eat in social situations because I eat so slow, it takes me just as long to finish.

My port does not show at all. Just the scar is visible.

      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.

        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!
