Well surgery went well and after 2 nights in the hospital I am home. Doctor said everything looked great, despite my little cheat, my liver looked perfect and I have been sent home with liquid pain meds to take every 2-4 hours as needed. It's amazing how my appetite is just non existent...

I was actually whining because my mom woke me up to "eat lunch." I can care less about lunch. I'm tired of sipping.

Yes. It could be the desire to eat is gine because all we are doing is sipping. Lol. I do love my popsicles though.

I need to make myself some popsicles for when I get home. I think coolaid powder mixed with Monkfruit sugar and stevia should work.

I have a huge list of things to do before I leave tomorrow. It is getting intense. I even have hours of work from this week I have not completed yet. I have pre blood typing at 2 tomorrow and have to be there for surgery at 6:45 Monday morning.

I made some popsicles from Crystal Light but I fell in love with the ones in the hospital which were popsicle brand. Hubby bought me a box when I came home.

I am definitely doing all I can to avoid any colds or fevers in the next 2 days. Preop diet has me worn out though. I fell off the wagon seems everyday but I only had a salad or some cottage cheese or fruit which the doctor told me should be my only cheats if I just cant take it. Down 11 lbs since I started it but im sooooo over it now! I hope your cold releases you before Monday

      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!
