Did you have to have an upper scope before this date? If so how long after your scope was your surgery date set?

Thanks

Congrats to all of u! I am a bit nervous but its over a month away so I am enjoying the fact that i can still CHEW! lol Well at least until July 15TH then the 2 weeks of liquids start! I just ordered Unjury since I have heard so many good things about it. And I also have to have Lactose free, So i will let you all know how it works out. The guy also gave me some free sample packs of additional flavors.

No scope for me. I really dont have a medical history besides the weight and fibroids. So i only had to have cardiac clearance, ekg and chest xray.

      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!
