WooHoo!! I just got my date today for Sept 16th. I'm having the same problem I'll already be missing class that day but was planning on going to class the next day. I really don't want to miss any days so early in the semester but I guess I have to do what I have to do :biggrin: Best of luck to you!!

I could have stayed in a hotel an extra day, went to Mexico to be banded, but came home the day after surgery. Went thru waiting over 3 hours for my plane, the plane right, having to carry my own luggage, putting my own shoes back on, the trying to find where to meet my shuttle in a airport I was unfamiliar with in the dark, stopping on the way home (over an hour's drive) at the grocery store for some broth.

If I can do that a day after having surgery late the afternoon before, you could go back to school. Im also 57 years old which is a factor in getting more tired than you probably will be. Yes, it hurt to bend over and I was very tired, but you could conceivable sit in class if it was important to do so, skip whatever class wasnt so important.

      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!
