I'm worried that I'm doing this too late in life. Hoping I will recover well. Thoughts?

Never too late. I know a woman That is just turning 60 and had it done. She has zero regrets and it's working for her.

I had my surgery June 2nd, 2016! I was soo scared but now I am so glad I went ahead and did it!! I sometimes feel like the process is creeping along but I am still loosing so that's good, right? My nutritionist and surgeon seem to think I am progressing well so I need positive encouragement to keep up the momentum. I don't didn't tell many people about the surgery and I'm loosing so slowly I'm not sure that even my co workers are noticing. But that's ok with me. I work without an office full of women who are VERY judgemental so I didn't feel any need to let them know what was going on. I hope all is going well with you :)

      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!
