Hi,

I found out last week my surgery date is 2/12, I very nervous. My daughter just had LBS 12/10 so at least I have some up close experience, she's doing great! She started exercising and is trying to handle no restriction,but I'm still very anxious!!!! and concerned about the 2 week liquid diet my surgeon requires. We'll be great, Good Luck to all of us:thumbup:

Hey guys!!

My date is February 8! Nervous and excited. My preop diet starts next Monday - 3 weeks! - and I'm really dreading it but determined to follow it perfectly.

Janelle - I noticed you are having surgery in Cincinnati. Who's your doctor? I'm having surgery in Cinci with Dr. Curry.

I'm excited to make some new friends that will be going through this with me!

Hey Stacey! I'm Stacey too!

Hey Everyone!

I have scheduled my surgery for 2/5/10 in Mexico with Dr. Ortiz. A few people (of the very few that I have told) are very happy and excited for me, others are not happy that I'm going to Mexico and think that I'm putting my health in jeopardy. I want to tell them to bug-off but that wouldn't be very nice. Any advise for me on how to handle this?

Hey, I am getting my surgery done by Dr. Ortiz as well. My mom just had hers done a few days ago and she LOVED it down there. They are super gfreat, very professional, no issues whatsoever! I don't think that just because it is in Mexico, people should assume there is something wrong with it! It is a really great facility and everything will be great! I am going on February 22, so you are a bit ahead of 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'. ???

        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!
