(((Hugs)) you will be fine. I PROMISE! If i can do this ANYONE can! I am the biggest baby ever when it comes to being alone..Especially having surgery and in another country!! I just had to put my trust in God and pray about it. i truly believe if it wasn't meant for me to go something would have stopped me.

I had a melt down the night before and i was just going to cancel. Then My husband really made me feel better., I had came to far to give up now just because of what if's...I will never forget what he said, " You have to trust God and thank Positive, you cant go into this being negative, Being negative is only going to bring you negative outcomes" and that is so true because i could have let all that negative take control and I would have canceled and still been fat, unhealthy and unhappy with regrets later! But I thought positive and now i know i will be able to reach all my goals and also be a better mom, wife and friend since the weight will not be holding me back and having me in depressed moods where i just never want to leave the house!

      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!
