Hi Fran, how is your pre-op experience going? Do you have all your required stuff done and just waiting for 'the' day like I am?

Sorry. Haven't responded, work has been soooooo busy. I have my 7 th weigh in on aug 26th, then I turn in all my paper work on Sept 6th. That will be the last appt before surgery. After waiting so long my insurance better approve me. I'm hoping they will since I have severe obstructive sleep apnea. Cross your fingers.

Here's saying a prayer that everything works out for ya! I have BCBS if Michigan insurance and they don't give preauthorizations. So what this means is that I have to trust that the hospital I'm working with is correct about me meeting all my requirements prior surgery. I would just die if I got a bill from them because of some mishap and they didn't pay for it!

      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!
