Me me me!! I just had my surgery date confirmed today for March 9 as well and I am the first case that morning at 7:30am :). While I am excited, I am also a tad bit nervous too! While I have had two prior c-sections, I am still nervous as all get out about the post op time immediately afterwards!! I really do not want to be nauseated or in a ton of pain! I am looking forward to getting my life back on track, to being able to breathe better at night when I sleep, to having the lymphedema in my right leg improve, to being able to exercise longer without being so out of breath, to helping my heart become healthier and stay that way and to being able to get into some of my smaller sized clothing!! Are you nervous? What are you looking most forward to?

I'm scheduled for March 4. Going to see my doctor and the coordinator tomorrow. I am assuming that I'll get orders to get my pre-admission testing done and also to get my Protein products. It hasn't really hit me yet that as of today, my surgery is exactly 4 weeks away. Maybe after the doctor's visit tomorrow I'll start gearing up. I'm actually thinking of questions to ask the doctor and coordinator. Good luck to all the March Sleevers!

      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!
