I can't believe my surgery is the day after tomorrow! I thought the time would pass slowly but in fact it's been going by really fast. I've had a lot to do and today is no exception. I have my pulmonary testing today at 1:00, then my preop testing at the hospital at 2:00, and my preop appointment with my surgeon at 2:30. The hubby is tagging along today too as he has his pulmonary testing after me, at 2:00.

I am feeling a little nervous but not too bad! Might be worse tomorrow and the day of, I'm not sure. But I felt a lot more nervous before my consult than I do right now! Haha.

Got my Protein powder yesterday from Max Muscle. My choice was Peanut Butter fudge. It was the least sweet of the different flavors I tried.

Right now I am just looking forward to being on the other side of all this, coming home, resting. My best friend is coming in from Chicago to be with me for a whole week which will be awesome! Major Sex and the City marathon is going to happen (I've never watched the show and a friend lent me the whole series.)

Today I'm going to start packing my bags for the hospital! Whoo!:thumbup1:

Woohoo to being so close ! ! ! I'm a huge SATC fan, and you'll love it. It's fun to identify with the characters, and kind of live vicariously through them LOL.

It's great your bestie will be with you. Best wishes to you and the husband on all your appointments today.

      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.

      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!
