Hi..new to the group. I am scheduled for the 30th also. I am excited but sooo nervous. I have doubted my decision to have this a few times during my pre-op probably because I was hungry or watching my husband and daughter eating. I know these feelings are normal and I know this is the right choice. I have read a lot of stories on here with people dealing with complications and I'm glad I read them so that I can be informed as much as possible but lately I have been trying to stick to success stories only because otherwise my brain starts spinning! Good luck to everyone!

I'm not scared yet but I'm very ready to be on the other side of the surgery. I had a c-section with my first child so from that perspective I'm not too concerned with the surgery. The permanence of it all makes me pause and then I'm excited for a permanent tool to get healthy! I'm so ready for this!

I had a c-section too & 14 months ago, I am hoping that it is my saving grace come this surgery. Because I was completely fine after!

Welcome my fellow 11/30 sleevers!!! So glad we can help one another come Monday!! I am confirmed for 8:30am!!

Hi just checking in to see how everyone is feeling. I have been walking a lot today. The gas is pretty annoying. Right now it feels like it's in my upper abdomen. It was in my back earlier. Pain is not too bad. Just very sore getting in and out of bed. Haven't had anything to drink yet. Just some Water on a sponge. Had some nausea earlier in the day but that seems to have gone away for now. Hope everyone is doing well. Hang in there!

      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!
