5'2 scheduled for surgery on the 31 of October most recent weight. 202. Exited / nervous

I shall be thinking of you on the 31st. I can still remember how excited I was this time last year (I was lucky that I wasn't one bit nervous) and d'you know, the excitement is still there. I'm still on my journey as my goal weight is still 14lbs away. Every ounce that I lose still thrills me.

Good Luck for your surgery day and for the roller coaster of a wonderful ride that you are in for.

@@rmg19881015 by the way... I'm a wreck too. I'm so worried about blood clots, and the anesthesia. I bought the GasX strips, as I've heard the gas is the worst part after surgery. So... as I told my surgeon, "please, don't let me wake up La Morte...". LOL Another worry...acid reflux. I hope and pray that I don't get that. Good Luck to you. We'll both be wearing the same costume on the 31st...

I don't yet. I meet with one of the doctors Thursday for my physical and to decide what additional tests I may need and will go ahead and schedule my psych appointment and 1st nutriton appointment (I'm only required to do 3). I'm hoping for February or maybe March.

I'm 5'2. I had surgery on 8/18 and starting weight was 199. Now I'm 165. It's been no easy task. I work out everyday and still conscious of my food decisions. I love reading all your post. Keep up all the hard and good work everyone. Your worth it!

      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!
