I have everything ready, just waiting on a call from surgeons office. When I spoke with the nurse yesterday she said we were looking at Jan, 28th or 30th....I can't wait! The dr. office had sent the wrong surgery code to my insurance, so yesterday they were suppose to send the right code and when they get the okay they will schedule me for my last two visits before surgery..!

Hmmmm, what kind of liquids? How is your salt intake? And could it be hormonal?

salt intake is probably a little high since i'm making my own stocks to drink rather than the canned stuff. but I'm drinking a ton of liquids to counteract the salt. Who knows. Maybe just not enough. thinking about cutting down to 2 Protein Shakes instead of 3. Still less than the 5 they want me to drink

Make sure to verify the carb count on the Protein shakes. My surgeon requires less than 5 carbs per shake. He also requires I use non-fat or 1% milk to make them with. Salt can definitely make you retain Water. How much water do they want you to drink. I'm supposed to be at 100 oz a day. Ugh. I find using the Mio and Dasani water flavors help a lot if you aren't a big water drinker.

      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!
