Recommended Posts

Hi ladies and gents. I will be sleeved on July 3rd. I wasn't nervous until I read the post that said "3 weeks away". I would love to join you guys for this wonderful journey.

Sorry if the post made you nervous. I am just so psyched about getting it finally done. It has taken almost year to get here. I know that I will get nervous either the night before or day of the surgery. Keep your updates coming in, would love to keep hearing from you and all on how your journey is going.

Mine is July 4th. Is anyone have a hard time doing liquids? ? Can we have anything else as well???

I start mine tomorrow. My dr lets us have one reasonable meal at night, so fingers crossed I am hoping that will solve my urge to cheat on the two weeks of liquid. I have a picture from my past of the weight I want to get back to, so whenever I feel like cheating, I look at the photo...maybe you can find something like that to keep you on focus. Good luck !!!

No problem. I just refocused the nervous energy to preparing myself which I why I became nervous in the first place. I hadn't researched or even thought what I needed for the surgery. I started reading my written instructions daily and buying pre and post foods so things are better for me. I'm in the excited phase now.

      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!
