Hey I'm not going to lie I love my stomach. Buy my Dr. called me the healthiest ticking time bomb... all blood work and blood pressure is great. But 6 ft and 330.... I have a million nightmares and have that little voice telling me your fine don't do it... then the scales says ooooo god when's the date? ..... But May 14th is my day.. I coach a soccer team and tell them every day " PAIN IS TEMPORARY VICTORY IS FOREVER"

This is my 1st post as well. I am a nurse and chose Dr. Ortiz @ OCC. When is your surgery date?

Hi. I'm new. This is my first "real" post. I am a nurse and YES I am going to Mexico to have my surgery. After months and months of research, I chose Dr. Ortiz at OCC. I am very excited and nervous! This site has been extremely helpful. I admire everyone's honesty and willingness to support each other.

Scheduled for May 1st. Started the pre-op shakes yesterday.. I am really wanting to eat :(

I just have to keep remembering how crappy I feel carrying around this extra weight.

That feeling will get less and less just keep thinking of your goal! Can you chew gum? It's been a lifesaver for me

      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!
