I'm with Dr Oldham at Baptist East. Did you struggle with the pre-op diet?

How are you doing? How much weight have you lost?

I did not have to do a preop I have lost 65 lbs since april 20 more to go. I have not had any complications have not gotten sick and did not have any pain. So far it has been a breeze I can eat anything I try to keep my carbs around 40 my calories around 800 and Protein 80grams I followed everything the dr. said. The only thing I need to work on is exercising. How much do you have to lose. Out will be worth it I promise

Thanks for the encouragement! I have about 125lbs to loose. My Lord it sounds like a lot. The pre-op diet is kicking my butt.

It's great that you have done so well. I hope I'm the same way.

Wow! Why did you go to Mexico? I've noticed several people having surgery there. How did things go? Any complications?

I went to mexico for the price of the surgery. I have a low bmi compared to most and insurance wouldn't touch me here in the states, and the cost in the states can be up to 3-4 times as much. It was a fun experience, we stayed in San Diego, had a good time....

      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!
