Hi there! Got banded this morning!!! Feel pretty great now. Woke up saying "ow, ow , ow, ow" but they got if under control pretty fast. I was so worried. It was my first surgery as well. Cant believe how dry my mouth is but other than that I'm pretty good. excited for this next chapter!

Congratulations! I'm day four post op, and still pretty sore, especially around the port, but getting a little easier each day. I had dry mouth too! My doctor gave out Cepacol lozenges to help with that. Best of luck moving forward! I am definitely sharing your excitement. Let's do this! :P

Going to bed, hopefully to sleep! Surgery tomorrow. I'm too tired to be nervous but I'm sure the nerves might kick in tomorrow. Have really appreciated all the pre-op & post-op advice I've received here! :) It's made me feel prepared, welcome, and loved! I will keep everyone posted as soon as I'm able. My new life begins tomorrow.

I agree we should keep in touch! I will be having my surgery the day before yours! I did also notice not to many Pa people on here either which is weird because there were tons of people at the diet counseling. Good luck to you! I'm nervous/excited :)

      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!
