I have been officially cleared for surgery, ive completed all my testings, gone to the classes, did my pre-op class and have my Protein Shakes ready to go. The place i am going to is having me use HMR 800 and i needed to buy two weeks worth of mix so it was kind of expensive (probably less than i would have spent on food though). Pre-op two week liquid diet starts on 8/22...im excited but scared at the same time! 26 days till surgery..eeekks :wub: . Now i just have to wait for insurance to go through but they say it shouldnt be a problem.

We have the same surgery date 9/25. I'm hoping everything goes well. Maybe after we could check in and see how everything went. Best of luck!!

I'm September 10th with Dr. Ortiz in Tijuana. NUT wanted me to lose 32 lbs before surgery.... I've lost 35 lbs so far... Woo Hoo! Can I make it to 40 lbs lost before my surgery? Keep your fingers crossed!

      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'. ???

      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!
