Not gonna lie...everyone that said they felt great can take a flying leap...I was violently ill and in indescribable pain for 7 hours...I am much better today but yeah...I was in tears and I'm very tough. That was just my experience and I'm sure that's rare...but I'm grateful it's over

Thanks for the heads up!! It's nice to know and what to expect!

I hope I get to go home today too, but I'm not sure.

Day 3 is a massive improvement :) happy girl today! My biggest piece of advise...walk....every hour. No matter what. Wake up at night? Take a lap. Bored of what's on tv? Take a lap. Much better because of it today.

I got my surgery time today 12 pm! I have to be at the hospital at 930 on surgery day! It won't be long now. I found out I have to do Lovenox injections For a whole month!! That stuff ain't cheap but I know God will provide just like He always does!! I'm still so excited.

My tummy growls when I drink and it settles down. It might be too much air. When u sip, push out air from ur lungs when u swallow...might help...

So my boss just called and said that she will not approve for me to have the week of the 25th off. I need to wait until the following week' date=' to schedule my surgery. What a bummer! I really thought that it would happen in March. Oh we'll, I guess one more week doesn't really matter but she makes me mad! I want it done as soon as I can not when she says its ok. I guess if I want my job I will do as she says though. Ugh. So now I need to join the April dates. Sorry.[/quote']

My boss did the same thing to me!!.. I was SOoo upset!!.. I couldn't believe I waited so long to get a date and then I couldn't go :(.. Original day march 4th... New date March 25!!

      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'. ???

      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!
