LOL...I have been feeling down the past few days and I realized it's because I don't know what to do with myself now till surgery. I've been so focused on getting approved and getting a date, now I'm like uhhhhhhh now what??? It's particularly annoying because I'm sure there are things I should get done before surgery to be prepared, I just can't seem to focus ony of it!

I'm set myself another goal weight to hit before surgery. I was so focused on getting approved that my weight hasn't moved in 2 weeks. Gives me something to work on.

I also know that there are still things I need to prepare for but I need to organize my thoughts and put a list together. My mind is all over the place thinking about surgery.

I did too, but the scale is absolutely refusing to move. I think it's determined to remind me how much I need the surgery because while I was losing well earlier, I was doubting my need for it. And I have lists, I just keep adding to them instead of tacking what's already on there. I'm so scattered!

Saw the pulmonologist yesterday and he gave my clearance. I have a mild form of sleep apnea that he is sure will go away once I lose some weight. I have my pre surgical testing scheduled for Monday morning which I see going smoothly and getting the thumbs up there as well. My final clearance is with my PCP which is scheduled for the 19th and I see that going well too. Then the fun 2 week liquid diet would begin on 4/25. Getting so close and super excited!

      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.

        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!
