I am just tooooo excited!!!! I thought this day would never come!!! When I decided to have the surgery done, I was so excited! When it took so long and never received a date, I became discouraged and at one point slightly depressed. One of my best friends had her surgery on 2/23/04 and I was there with her. It was great to see what I would be going through once that day FINALLY came. Now, I know it's going to come!!! I'm dancing, but you can't see me! I can't wait until Monday so that I can talk to my doctor and get my surgery date!! I'm just too happy! :P

Thank you all so much! As soon as I get my surgery date, I will post it! I'm still just so excited! I thought sleeping would calm me down - it did a little bit, but not completely. I have been waiting SO LONG for this!!!

      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!
