Hi Paula78, we have state-specific forums. When you're looking for people from a specific area, you'll probably have the best luck by posting there. Not that you won't get responses here, but they will be "concentrated" there. :)

Tracy,

I'm sending you good wishes for your upcoming surgery. I know everything will go well. You will be in good hands with Dr. Malley.

Did you attend his last support group? I thought I read on one of your posts that you attended a support group? How was it? I wanted to go but couldn't get away from work. How many people attended? Was the exchange of information useful to you?

I hope you get some sleep between now and Thursday. I know it will be hard as the excitement builds. Good luck and let me know how everything turned out.

I'm in MO, NW part - close to KS. Banded in KS. In fact we looked at a house in Prairie Village yesterday... still debating the hop to the other state though, not completely sure it's the right move. :girl_hug:

      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.

        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!
