Gaffer, what time is your surgery scheduled for? I was told to be there at 8:20 and my surgery is at 9:20am.

I am scheduled for 12:00 and I read in the pre-op some where that they want you an hour early.

Anyways, I am just packing and making some last minute arrangements. We fly to TO tommorow.

I'll send out good vibes Becca and Andrew for your surgery in TO. I am 6 days banded and feeling good! liquid diet is not bad, especially the smoothier Soups. Gas pains all gone and suture/wounds sites mending really well. You will breeze through it and wake up in a whole new realm of nutrition - a second chance to get it right. Absolutely fantastical. Again, good luck and let us know how you are soon.:clap2:

Thanks guys. I am just in the hotel waiting to go to my day before appointment with Dr. C.

I am sure all will go well. Assuming that this giant storm they are calling for does not shut down the GTA.

      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!
