Tick tock goes the clock..my surgery is tomorrow!!



Recommended Posts

After months of anticipation, prep work, doctors appointments, and conteplating, I am having my VSG surgery at 10:30am tomorrow. Surprisingly, I am not nervous. I am super excited and can't wait to embark on this new journey on the winners aka losing bench. I am sure I will be a little nervous once I get to the hospital. Either way, there is no turning back and I am ready.

My thoughts and prayers go out to all my sleeve siblings having surgery tomorrow, on 9/12. Best of luck to all of you.

Good luck to all those having surgery soon! It has been 6 weeks (tomorrow) for me and the journey is worth it! The first few days/weeks are tough but it does get better. Concentrate on getting fluids in. Don't worry about Protein for a week or so, just stay hydrated. SF popsicles were and still are my best friend! Try your liquids at different temps if swallowing is difficut in the beginning. 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!
