Just got everything finalized last week for my Dec 28 surgery! excited and nervous, but mostly excited!! My husband had it done 1 1/2 years go so I do kind of know what to expect.... and I have great support from him.

Will be all liquid on Christmas, so we'll see how that goes. :/

Can you have your chewable vitamins the 2 days before surgery? My date is Dec 8th & I'm supposed to be clear liquid 1 day before surgery date.

MsMe, my paperwork says to stop all Vitamins, and certain medications like ibuprofen, one week before surgery. I know that ibuprofen acts like a blood thinner and so does some vitamins, so, I believe that is why they want you to stop these things one week prior to surgery. Of course, you should probably get this confirmed with your doctor.

Dec 28th for me too! And I'll be on my pre op diet starting 12/14 so no Christmas Desserts for me either. I'm also excited and nervous but life is still going on and so much to do at work and home that I don't have a ton of time to think about it. But I'm super excited! Happy new year to us! Best wishes on your journey!

      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!
