You will do fine. Everybody gets nervous as surgery approaches. And everyone gets depressed at the thought of losing their best friend "food". Why don't you go to before and after pictures. That should make you feel better.

It is common to second guess yourself. Stick with your decision and then do everything your doctor tells you and follow the rules and you will do fine. We all worry that we are going to be 'the one' that fails. And clearly all of us don't! If you commit to doing what you are supposed to do you will do fine! Good luck!

take heart and stay in the game! It's your body and your life - don't lose faith in yourself 2 days before the big day! On Feb. 25, I asked a friend/colleague if she had any regrets regarding lapband surgery - she said "only that I didn't do earlier in my life". That was a page turner for me. The results excite me, the surgery scares me to death,.....the opportunity to live my life the way I have always wished - that is what helps me stay in the game!

      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!
