My wife and I arrived at the hospital and checked in together ... We however will not be in the same room due to the fact we have similar names and have a name alert.. They don't want any mistakes .. We both got our Iv's and regular check up stuff .. Now I guess we chill for a few hours.. Will keep you posted..

My wife is in surgery and I'm getting set to go soon... They gave us a few meds to relax us while we waited.. One included medical marajuna pills and the other Xanax ... Our pain killer is Percocet for a short time and will be switched to tylenol

So that's it for now.. Just waiting.. Will post again when I'm alert!

So my surgery is the day after tomorrow. I'm feeling so excited and anxious. So far I've visited friends, cleaned my apartment, and watched movies to keep my mind busy. So so excited!

My pain is on the left at my rib too. Right to the one incision that still hurts. The doctor told me that was the bigger and the one that held the camera and stuff and its common. But definitely call to ease your mind.

We are both doing good.. Have terrible gas pains though... They give us a chewable every 4 hours for gas cause we were told were not able to use our gasx here ( sigh ) so..as of right now so far so good.. Just wish I could get just a little bit of sleep .. Hard when you fight through gas pain and once you fall asleep .. Someone wakes you up for something.. LoL

One other thing right off the bat my left side hurts the worse... However I have been alternating laying on my sides holding a pillow.. It helps a lot

All I know is I'm so glad to be on the losers bench and looking forward to wonderland

Starting weight 244

Weight when I got here 234

Goal weight 130

      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!
