Whos in September? We need some September buddies!



Recommended Posts

Does anyone else have a pre-surgery liquid diet? The liquid diet starts August 27th and I think I am more nervous about the 2 weeks of liquid than I am about the surgery!!!

I'm nervous about the liquid diet also, I feel like if I can't do that... then I will not be successful post-op!! Also, worried about my fatty liver.. not being small enough!!

I apologize for quoting then deleting - having a hard time getting the hang of the reply sometimes:) Dannipo, I so agree with you! I feel like if I can't do this then I shouldn't be having surgery. It still makes me nervous. I'm just trying to make sure I have all my tools in place before I start.

Hi

This morning the scheduler offered me the dates of 8/27 or 8/28 however I will be traveling the week of Sept. 3, so those dates were out. I am scheduled to have surgery on September 16, 2013. Yes, finally I can start count down to my new beginning!

I'm having the surgery September 10th. It's Dr Valenzuela/Mi Doctor for me. Can't wait! I'm worried about my pre-op diet. I have to lose about 5-10 lbs which isn't that much but what if I lose too much??

      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!
