Getting ready for my surgery tomorrow! So excited and less nervous than I thought I would be. I guess I'm just really ready for this! Pre op diet went better than expected. I was hungry, but the Protein Shakes were filling. Keep me in your prayers!!

Everyone is different. I read all these stories and first hand accounts of what happened but in the end my experience was solely my own. I am 5 days out and I feel like I never even had surgery outside of the random runners pain from my lower incisions when I move wrong. I'm sip sip sipping my way to happy land. Patiently expecting weight loss without obsessions, weighing in every damn day, fretting over every little detail. I will do all that I need to do to maintain my health and I pray that you do the same. You will fare well. Pray and mostly, relax. Have a go with the flow mindset when doctors and nurses have to do things a bit differently just for you. This is really a custom experience. I am so happy I did this.

I asked my surgeon when I went for my post op check up and he said nothing is banned just watch your carbs and make sure you get your Protein and liquids in. I just wanted to make sure I got all the info since I don't see him again till the end of August (even though I can call him or the girls at the office). Papers they give you are soo vague. They don't really explain anything.

      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!
