Night before surgery



Recommended Posts

At this moment reading some the post I feel like " I can do this". There were several moments day where I wonder if i was making the right choose. I guess it is good that I am not going into this lightly ( no joke intended). I did find the shake only diet difficult. i missed chewing I think. I hope there is a difference with pre-op hungry liquid diet and the post=op liquid diet. I am praying the intake of just liquids will not bother me since I should not have the hunger.

My bag is packed...not taking much and the alarm is set for 4AM. I sure hope that I can sleep tonight and that I will have a sense of peace in the morning.

Please stay a little prayer for me around 7Am tomorrow.

You will be okay. Try to get some sleep. Tomorrow will be a long day. Hope all goes smoothly for you.

You'll do great tomorrow! The day before my surgery everyone who knew kept asking if I was ready or similar things. I was so confident in my choice, similar to you, and I haven't regretted it! Everyone is different, but I haven't felt hungry since my surgery (2/18). I'm on the all liquids and it hasn't bothered me. The thought of eating something at the moment makes me feel sick. I hope your have little pain and recovery quickly!

      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!
