:clap2: Hi everyone,

My name is Tia, I'm new to this wonderful site. I was referred to this site yesterday in my pre-OP session with Linda Lenz from Abkin & Bertha's. I am so excited about my upcoming procedure scheduled on 2/27.

Would love to hear from you with words of wisdom & encouragement.

Much health and success,

Tia

Hiya Tia, and welcome to LBT. Browse the forums for tons and tons of great information. The FAQ forum has some great tips for getting prepared for your surgery, and the food forum will answer a lot of your questions about good foods to have on hand for your early post op days.

Best of luck to you, and we look forward to hearing about your progress!

      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!
