I got approved and my surgery is on the 26th and my husband doesn't think I should have it but I on the other hand think I do.... What should I do?! Stress

No one, I repeat, NO ONE can make this decision but you. Don't do this for any one but yourself. If you have too many questions, wait, that surgeon is not going any where. See a therapist, do what makes you comfortable. But in the end, it is all up to you.

Go with what your gut tells you. Find out what are your husbands fears are?

When I first mentioned this to my husband 3 years ago he didnt think it was a great idea and thought is was an easy way out (and we know that isn't true) but with more info and knowing others that have it done he has come around and realize it is going to be a big help for me, he is very supportive .

I am getting banded on October 29th I just wish i would have booked it and had it done three years ago. Good luck with your decision.

      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!
