I have surgery scheduled for sept 26 with Dr Guillermo Alvarez. I am looking for any input from people who have been there for this procedure as well as anyone who is scheduled around my date!!!! I need a support group. My husband is the only person who I have talked to about this. He is very supportive but I would like to expand my support group with people who have been in my shoe or are currently there!!

Yay, congrats! I am having surgery on September 24th. I keep alternating between excited and very nervous. But there's no backing out now. I have jumped through way too many hoops.

I'm happy to be part of a support group. I saw a thread for a group that all had surgery the same week and they kept posting for a few months after with weight loss updates, etc. I thought it might be a good idea for everyone having surgery the week of September 22nd. Having a thread for everyone having surgery the same month gets really big and overwhelming.

My procedure is scheduled for September 27th with Dr. Alvarez! I am looking forward to the beginning of this new journey in my life, but am nervous as the date approaches.

      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'. ???

      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.

      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!
