Weight now is 239

GOOD LUCK TO YOU! You will be just fine. Stay positive and think of the future when you start to wonder what you did to yourself. The first few days aren't easy, but as time goes on it gets better and better!

I have to reschedule my surgery for October 14 because I had a salad. 3 days before surgery so I have to wait. I was struggling on my liquid diet. :thumbup: But I am back on track now.

I was wondering, what kinda pre op do you have to do I was told that i thought it was just the liver shrinking diet low carb diet

How long do you have to just drink fluids?

The IV blows. That was probably the worst part. I was given a 4 hour window to pee or else they were going to give me a catheter. I made it n 3 hrs 45 mins.

Oh wow PA... really? That does seem kind of harsh for a salad. However, trust in your surgeon that s/he knows what he's doing. I'm sure there's good reasons in what they're doing.

Hugs! If anything this will keep you on track 100% now, huh? It's only 2 weeks... you can do anything for 2 weeks. After surgery you won't even think about food... LOL

      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!
