Is it just me or does anyone else feel a little emotional at times? I’m so happy for this opportunity - it can feel surreal and overwhelming in a pleasant way at times x

I’m super excited but so nervous too. Like my liquid starts on Wed and then surgery next Wed June 7. Freaking out a bit.

For real for real I'm really nervous because my liquid diet starts tomorrow and that's what I'm so afraid of but I have everything that I need and I just pray to God that I can stick with it for 2 weeks

My surgery date is scheduled for June 21st. My doctor requires a 4 week, all liquid diet before surgery. I started today but am worried I’m gonna fail.

Hi Lolavolcan, I'm in Utah too. I haven't been assigned a diet yet. My pre-surgery appointment is June 9 and that's when I start all liquids then my surgery is just 5 days later. There is such a huge variation of requirements. I'm almost concerned that I haven't been given more prep diet time. I need to do some research! eek!

That's how I was actually feeling my last appointment before my surgery is on June 7th 6 days before my surgery when are they going to tell me to start my liquid diet so go for it yourself count out them 14 days and do it yourself that's what I'm doing this is why mines is going to start tomorrow because they didn't give me a date to start I'm just starting it on my own

      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!
