Recommended Posts

Well the count down is on. I have been doing so well the last couple weeks with staying focused and not trying to worry about the surgery...but today, knowing that tomorrow I have surgery im getting butterflies in my stomach. Im affair by the time I get off the plane tomorrow I will be a nervous wreck! I cant wait to start a new healthy life but I hate the thought of surgery (I have had plenty of surgeries and always feel this way before hand). I have been following all the threads on the mayo banditos and it does give me alot of encouragement knowing how strong you all have been...and the strength you lend to one another! I know things will go fine just getting the pre op nervousness!:thumbup:

Good luck and we'll talk to you soon......:lol:

I was scared too because I had never had surgery or anaesthesia! Now I cant believe I didnt do it sooner. Best decision ever! Worth every penny of the self pay and now I'm SURE I can do this! Good luck, we will all be thinking of you!

Good luck tomorrow! I had never had surgery before either, just 3 babies. I am a big wuss too! I think the plane ride would be the scariest for me!

      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'. ???

      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!
