I'm very excited. No one has really given me crap because only my husband and one of my cousins know about any of this. I dont have any idea what they would say so I figured it would just be easier this way. I'll probably end up telling them after its done. Are you getting negative comments?

Hmmm...I don't guess that it's really negative comments vs concerned comments and questions.

Like.. why Mexico? Are you sure it's safe? Are you crazy? LOL mostly just concern

I am looking into getting surgery in Mexico. I have a friend who lives in Tijuana and she got her surgery done there and had great results. I'm afraid to tell my family because they will be very concerned.

My Dr told me I could take my vit b-12, vit D and multi vit post op. But can't take any of my supplements till later.

      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!
