Hi!! Welcome, I was nervous too, real nervous the day of surgery. I told my husband I wanted to forget it and I wanted to leave the hospital. I have had many other surgeries and have never been this nervous but it wasnt as bad as other things I have had done and I would do it again in a minute.

Good luck to all the April bandees! It will happen quickly and life will go on. Hard to believe it's been 2 months for me.

Just remind yourself why you are doing this. It made it easier for myself...

Congratulations to all of you! You won't regret it, I promise! It's only been 3 weeks for me, but I am really happy I did it. I was a little sore at the beginning, but now all is good.

Before you know it, you'll be welcoming all the newbies to the board. Congratulations again! And don't worry, everything will turn out ok.

Mary1094 - keep us posted on your progress. I'll be thinking of you tomorrow. :confused:

      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!
