Time with your kids



Recommended Posts

I've been thinking alot about the things I want to do with my kids after I have my surgery. I want to ski, hike, teach my girls ballet and softball, and play basketball with my boys. What are some of your favorite things to do with your kids that you couldn't do before surgery?

I have too! I want to be able to ride a bike, play soccer, go camping and hiking, walk the entire theme park, walk with them wo getting breathless, volunteer for field trips...The list is endless but most importantly than all of the above, I want to live a long healthy life to see them grow, guide them, educate them and participate in all of the wonderful things life give us.

My kids are grown. Now is the time when I can stop being a parent who tells them what to do and be a friend who enjoys their company and can keep up with them. And I want to be healthy and active to enjoy my grandchildren when they come along. :-)

I want to be there for my grandkids also. Unfortunately, cancer and diabetes took our mothers away from us so our kids have not had the joy of having a grandmother's love. I'm looking forward to it even though it's a long ways away. :-)

I taught my kids bad eating habits. Mainly insane portion size. I really regret 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!
