I had my surgery yesterday around 2:00pm. I have done really well! Praise God! I had it worked up to so much more than it has been thus far. My pain has been around a 1 or a 2 all night. Walked last night around 8:30. My doctor says its possible may go home today. I will write more later.

Wonderful news!!! Looking forward to hearing more about the beginnings of you new journey! God Bless!

Losers Bench. Pain isn't that bad. Didnt use pain meds last night. Feels like I did 200 crunches. About to walk. I'm ready for ice chips!

Very well put! A lot of crunches.. Now if the gas bubbles would go away!

Still sitting in pre-op. My surgeon must have gotten stuck in her first surgery. Soooooo sleepy and ready to get this done.

I hope everything went well. I imagine since no update your procedure wasn't postponed again. :-)

I don't know about anyone else, but I can hardly do any work these days. All I can focus on is this journey! Mentally I'm already on leave...

So as of today I have been on a liver shrink diet since May 20. I was only suppose to be on it two weeks but when they switched my surgery' date=' surgeon, and date I have to do it even longer. This week I found out I lost 10lbs and I did really well but the last two days for whatever reason I've blown my diet way out. Both days I've wen over about 500 calories... I've got to get back on track and keep losing this weight. Meeting my surgeon tomorrow. Two more weeks of this diet. Craving more then chicken and shakes.[/quote']

Try doing nothing but shakes for a month. :( I have six more days to go. My husband accused me of watching porn... I was watching the food network last night with my eyes glazed over. Lol

If I can make it thru the next six days that will be 30 days on liquids. I cam do anything!

The nurse called me to pre register me f or surgery. I'm so excited. I have a 1000 calorie diet 7 days before surgery and a bowel prep the day before. Not lookibg foward to that. I did buy a goal outfit today too. Its a size 12. It was on clearance. I'm going to use it to keep me focused!

I did that! I got two JCP coupons and although I'm a while away from surgery I got three XL shirts and two pairs of jeans (12 & 14) all for $3 after my coupons. I'm going to do that every time so I have a bunch of clothes in different sizes. Best way to save money and avoid thrift shops. Nothing against thrift shops at all but when I'm down so many pounds I want cute new clothes!

      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!
