I've been waiting for this day for 2 years now. I have less than 24 hours before my life changes. I've been told by everyone that I won't regret it, but I'm SOOOO Nervous! Is this normal?

Yep!!! Totally normal! I actually almost had a panic attack right before they started to wheel me back, but the anesthesiologist saw it coming, when no one else did, and very covertly gave me meds to knock me out before I ever left pre-op.

I never had the chance to thank him, but he saved me from my self.

I won't lie, there were some moments when I truly wondered what I had done, and began to regret, but ultimately those all faded and I will never regret this decision again.

Good luck girl! Work the program and it will work for you!!

It's very normal! I'm 5 days post op and I was very scared. My doc had then give me some Meds before I was taken into the or to calm me and I do not recall anything after that. It took about a second and my husband said I was sleeping. It was for the best when I woke up I was in ICU and my nurse, doc, and husband were there. Said everything went perfect! Then I woke up next when they had me start to walk about four hours later. I just remember the Cotten swabs and chap stick were my BFF the first 24 hours. You are going to do amazing!! Just say a prayer and enjoy the new healthy you. Everyday has a new challenge, but I am starting to feel better. Good luck!!

      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!
