Big day tomorrow!!!! How are you feeling about it?
I know there are many different surgeries but with my mini gastric bypass I feel absolutely no hunger. I have to make myself eat but I do tend to forget because of the lack of hunger. I was hungry around the clock pre op so this is miraculous to me!

GOOD LUCK for tomorrow - big hug - let us know how you got on :)

@@bluey I'm about 15 down now, I think, and surgery is tomorrow. I hope I do as well as you!

Good! A little scared, but so far not too bad. I'm trying to act confident about it so I don't upset my poor husband. Sometimes it's harder to watch someone you love go through things than to do them yourself!

Yes, you are right but he will end up with a more active and healthier wife. Just keep the big picture in mind!

Best of luck today!!!

Brilliant news!!! Glad you're not in too much pain!

Sleeved and back home. Everything went just fine, I think. Not too much pain so far.

Great to hear! I got hiccups a few times and also strange little burps would escape me with no warning. Seems to have mostly settled down now though :)

My surgery was on the 20th of this month anf all went well, I got the bypass and I got up and started walking. I seem to have hiccups.

I am getting hungry and this is just day 5, any advice?

My op is on the 5th - so in just a few days. It has all happened very quickly and I am feeling anxious.

Would love to make some friends to share the highs and lows.

I'm 43 with 2 kids and live on the English South coast.

      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!
