2 Days Till Surgery!!!!!



Recommended Posts

Well, I go in for my band on the 21st!!! Tonight was my 'last supper' so to speak! lol! My kids have had a blast this weekend eating with me all the things I know it will be awhile before I can eat again..and then never totally pig out again! It was a fun way to say good-bye to the old habit!

Going to meet w/ the anistesiologist (excuse the spelling!) in the morning. Tomorrow starts the Clear Liquids for me which will be a challenge but I know I can do it. The hard part will be Wednesday w/ nothing to eat or drink after midnight and surgery isn't until 2pm! YUCK! lol!

I'm hanging in there better than I expected through the pre-days, had a little crying jag this morning because there are so many lose ends right now. (The surgery date kinda fell into my lap so don't want to postpone it anymore!) We are moving and then Christmas is this week! Just a busy time.

One concern! (Don't anyone laugh here! LOL!) We have 50 yard line tickets for the KC Chief's game on Saturday the 24th. What are the changes I'm going to want to go??? It's the year that the kids aren't w/ us for Christmas so my DH and I have been looking forward to going to the game. I REALLY want to go...but am I being unrealistic 3 days post op??? Advice everyone! And will I feel like going into the office for a few hours on Friday?????

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting 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.
