December Surgery Dates



Recommended Posts

don't be nervous, it is a GOOD thing you (WE) are doing. We have had lots of success so far in December, no reason to think it will change! Just think of what next year will hold for us?

Hi everyone I'm back..my surgery went well on Dec 6th..yes I know it's been a while, but was trying to rest as much as I could. How is everyone doing that had surgery on the 6th? How much weight have you lost? Are you HUNGRY?

Ok I am one day post op. I am having killer shoulder pain but other than that doing ok. It's funny I am hungrier now than I was on the two week liquid diet. I actually got to that dieter's high that I had not felt in years. My dieters high is when I am not particulary interested in food and have tons of energy and willpower. During this phase I asked myself if I even needed the band. But I know that does not last and that is when I will need the band! But I am down 14 pounds and am determined to keep going. I look forward to succeeding on the journey! Can't wait to start exercising.:whoo:

Hi there! I have been reading for some time now, but haven't posted much. My surgery date is TOMORROW!!! (Dec. 19th). I am nervous and excited, worried the surgery won't work and sure it will ....all at the same time! I am making myself a little crazy here.:)

Well, wish me luck. I'll be post-band tomorrow...YEAH! :whoo:

I love this - having a December 07 forum.

We are in such close stages. Some just banded, and others on preop diets. This is great.

Terrified!!!!!!!- My Surgery is Thursday the 20th and I am scared!!! Reading this has been very helpful though :confused: I have been on straight liquids (no milk) for two weeks with the past couple days super Clear Liquids (no Tomato or Orange juice).. I miss chewing!!! I was told to not even have gum! And I had to take a laxative today to completely clear me out ( that was fun to do at work). Tomorrow is a bunch of antibiotics and Thursday nothing at all- I cannot have anything to drink even post op until Friday morning. They do an xray Fri AM to make sure everything is OK before they let me drink. Sounds like my doc is super strict from what I have been reading but I think I like it that way :(

      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!
