May 18. Is my date. Only thing I was supposed to be away for training for work that week. It's already paid for. Oh well. Lol

Do you plan to forego the training for your surgery, or delay your surgery?

I plan to have surgery. I've been at my job for 13 years, this is a conference with training classes. I'm hoping they can get a refund. And if I wait it won't be until September and that's a busy time at work so I'd never do that to them.

Congrats.

I have surgery date of 5-17, and my bosses are screaming because they do not know how to cover my responsibilities for 3 weeks.

(Results to staffing cut backs with no backups)

One even asked me to work from home the last 2 weeks, but I told him this is healing time, not working time.

I'll only be out two weeks if that I have a desk job mainly. I do payroll and I've been telling them to get my back up person for when I'm out.

Sounds like you should ask for a raise when you get back

      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!
