Hey yall I'm Deana 27 (28 Nov 13th) from East Texas and I got approved on Halloween!! Surgery date is November 26 2012 and I can't wait! Here's a little about me. I was lucky enough to marry my first crush we didn't see each other for 10 years but found our way back to each other and have been together for almost 8 years now. It's weird because he is a very good looking man and fit so it will be nice to match him (if that makes sense lol) We have two kids together Kenneth Jr and Sofia Marie and I also have two amazing step kids Jordyn and Sammy who we are in the process of trying to get custody of. Can't wait to start this new chapter of my life to be able to run after my kids and play with them I just can't wait. I'll keep this post kinda short and sweet for now and will be back when I start my pre op diet and post pics when I'm post op :)

Not yet, I haven't really had time to think about it. I am a teacher so I've been busy trying to get lessons ready for when I'm out and finishing up the end of the 6 weeks grades before Wednesday. I am sure the nervousness will hit late tomorrow night, but I'm excited!!

I find myself going between the two. One day I'm excited the next I have butterflies all day. I think all the weeks of just liquids freaks me out. My husband just looked at me and said how the hell can you live off liquids for over a month and stay alive. So now when I get nervous I just smack him in the back of the head and say "thanks dear" lol

      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!
