Same here, I'm August 8th I was SO excited, then the nerves started getting the best of me!! This is BIG, but we will do wonderful!!! I'm still nervous, today I've gone back over my guidebook my weight loss center provided, just to refresh my brain about everything!! It helped reading about the surgery, also I've been on here today looking at before and afters....these things have helped me!!! Still nervous though, which is totally normal...good luck to you!!! We start our amazing journey together.....

You will have doubts until you get on the table. But you will have more good thoughts when u wake up and about 4weeks post op. you will also think "what the hell did I do!" In the first week. You will make it and you will not regret in the long run. So says the one 3 months out and 64 lbs off.

      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!
