Hi Lynn -

I can't really give you and advice, but I can tell you that we are in the same exact boat right now.

I just got my surgery date and its on the 26th of April.

I have researched everything pretty extensively and haunted this website for some time (this is my 1st reply/post).

I am really excited about it as well; but mainly, just glad all the Pre-Op Hoops are done being jumped through.

That was the worst part so far for me - a never ending stream of appointments and "did I pass?" moments...

Congrats on your surgery date! I'll be right behind you.

Well congratulations and welcome to the losers club.:D ..After surgery drink and walk as much as you can. It will help move the gas and also will help you heal faster. I really do suggest you follow your doctors before and after diet and don't vary from it. good luck and please keep us posted.

      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!
