Hi,

Are there any other April bandster getting ready for their surgery. I would love to trade stories with people who are at the same point in the journey as I am.

Hi!

I think I will be an April bandster(as much as I would like to be in March). All my insurance stuff should be turned in this week(fingers crossed), so hopefully with approval I'll get a late March early April date.

I'd love to hear how you are doing along the the way.

Good Luck!

Linda

I am going to be banded on April 30th, and let me tell you that date can't come quick enough for me! Im so ready to do it now. I will be banded at UCSF in San Francisco, CA By Dr. Rogers.

Good luck to you!

Glad to see there are others besides me for April. I am at South San Francisco Kaiser. I had my psych and preop class today. Not really helpful but I am jumping through the hoops. They cancelled my anesthesia appt that was on the 20th so now I have to go the 19th for anesthesia and the 20th for my final surgeon vist right before surgery. It wouldn't be so bad if it wasn't 1 1/2 hours away, but it means another day off from work. I don't know how I missed it in my book but I did find out today that I won't ever be able to eat popcorn again. That is too bad since it is low fat and I really do like it. Let me know once you get your surgery dates and where you all are from. Good luck

      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'. ???

      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!
