Wonderful! You will find the Nutritionist visits are extremely helpful. There is so much information to know, and of course knowledge is POWER! ^_^

Continue on! Those months will fly by... promise.

The appointment went good. A lot of info about the pre op diet to lose some weight. They don't put you on liquids for 2 weeks just a healthy diet before surgery. Very motivational visit. Hoping for surgery late July or early August.

Had my psych eval yesterday which was fun fun fun!! Today met with my surgeon for my initial consult, which went extremely well. I have completed everything just waiting on some of the info to be faxed to my surgeons office. Very very excited. Hoping for a date of early to mid September maybe late August if everything goes without a hitch.

Congrats! I'm pretty much at the same place, only my hospital requires I go through 3 classes with the nutritionist. Should be meeting my surgeon soon though.

      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!
