My surgery is the day before thanksgiving and its normally my holliday meal to cook for my family. They are so supportive and we have just decided to skip it this year....isnt that great! I was planning on cooking as much of it as possible the day before but now I am in the clear!

Hey gals, I`m the 24th, so all we are missing here is the friday ( the 27th) after turkey day.

DFL, just think, next year you'll be able to have a taste or two of those oowey, gooey, sweet tators, but just imagine a much smaller figure delighting in those tators!

and

SE, a reprieve for the chef!!!! Good for you, because I honestly think you really won't feel up to it anyway. Besides,

"you deserve a break today" but not at McDonalds!!!!

Relax and enjoy the parades!

Best of everything to ya both!

See ya on the other side!

Cheryl

      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!
