OMG... the day is here..



Recommended Posts

In less than 6 hours I will be arriving at the hospital for my band. As I am sitting here I feel euphoric and nauseous.... I will soon put the patch behind my ear the doctor gave me so the nausea should pass. I feel as if I could even cry ... its part relief that its finally here and I am starting down the road to my rebirth and part fear of what is to come. I have had many surgeries over the past 20 yrs. due to female problems, back and neck issues but this is the first surgery I actually chose to have and didn't have to have..... I can honestly say that if it weren't for the wonderful ppl that i have met on the site I would seriously need a Valium right now to calm my nerves. THANK YOU EVERYONE !!!!!!

Congratulations! I wish you a painless recovery! I am feeling it now myself having gotten my band placed two days ago. :) Each day really has been better than the last...the walking really does help even if you don't feel like it. :)

      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.
