Betty's Surgery



Recommended Posts

I will be leaving for the hospital about 4:30 in the morning, my things are all packed except for a few things I have to use in the morning.

I kept extremely busy all weekend to not worry so much, and it worked pretty good.

I will let y'all know as soon as I can how things went.

Thanks again for all the encouragement and support y'all have given to me.

Well, Betty Boop, you probably won't get much sleep tonight. But that's normal! I know you're nervous about your surgery, but excited about your new journey as a Bandster. May God hold you safely in the palm of his hand! Please give your husband a big hug for us. I know the next few days will be long and tiring for him. But remind him that he will reap the benefits of a healthier, more energetic YOU - very, very soon! Love you lots girl!

      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!
