may 1st. been on the liquid diet since april 17th and at this point im just ready to get it over with! the anticipation is killing me, but I am looking forward to being off work for a couple weeks- that is a plus. I live in nyc and just getting to work is work!!!!!!


I'm in the same boat - surgery wise and work wise. Although I don't live in NYC, but my commute is over an hour both ways in crappy traffic. I can't wait for May 1 and I am super excited about having some time off from work too. I go back and forth on whether I should take the full 3 weeks or ask to work from home the third week.

Me too. I've only been on the liver reduction a week but at night I'm so so hungry. I counted the calories and I've been taking in less than 500 most days. No wonder I'm tired. I'm also sooo looking forward to some time off work. I feel so burned out and having trouble really concentrating the last week. I go in on Tuesday and can't wait.

      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!
