Hi Everyone

My surgery is this afternoon. I am now getting ready to go to Tijuana.< /p>

My main fear now is that I will regret it or will not be able to maintain a proper diet and will ruin all the efforts. These past 2 days I only think of food and it has been hard not to go on a binge... I really hope that after surgery I will think less about eating b/c right now it is been hard to be on the liquid diet.< /p>

I am avoiding thinking of the surgery and risks. I only pray that by the end of the week I will be home with my kids, alived, sleeved, healthy and happy.

Please pray for me for I have no complications in my surgery.

Thank you all.

It is really amazing the day I got out of surgery the last thing I wanted to do was eat. I know that you would never think this but it is true for the first 6 days you will not want food period..just walk and sip walk and sip. The most important thing after surgery is to keep hydrated and walk to keep the gas moving.. I wish you the best of luck and please keep us posted..

      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!
