November Surgery Date!



Recommended Posts

Hey everyone! New here :)

I am getting ready to go to my pre-op class for gastric bypass surgery! I have a surgery date of November 17th, and I am super excited, but also a little nervous..

Does anyone else on here have a November surgery date?

Maybe we could help each other prepare for what lies ahead :)

Hi!! I'm watching the weather forecast and I see my surgery date (November 4th) on the 7 day forecast!! I am psyched!! I am ready to start the next phase of this journey. More importantly, I have some fears and concerns, but my dreams of what I'll be able to do physically (Ride amusement park rides with children, fly comfortably, travel, exercise, run 5k's and 10k's for diabetes, breast cancer, etc..) The fears grow smaller and the excitement, joy, and hope grow bigger!! Let's do this together with more if our November buddies!!!!

Hey! I'm new here as well! My surgery date is November 11th. I'm nervous and excited since November is inching closer and closer. So glad to see there are others who are having surgery in the same month :)

I'm so glad to hear that there are others going through this at the same time. I'm sure our fears will go away soon after the surgery when the weight starts to fall off! Keep me posted about your future success please! I'd love to hear about it!

That's great! It is very exciting. I haven't really been nervous yet, I'm hoping it won't all hit me right before they put me to sleep. Lol.

      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.

        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!
