I'm gonna try to disconnect tonight until after my surgery. Will post again after. Just wanted to let you know that you are in my thoughts and prayers.

I am so sorry I haven't been in touch. Things have been NUTS here at work and I just go home and collapse. I am doing pretty good, just trying to prepare myself mentally for the trip...I am so excited for you that it's tomorrow! Yay!

I will definitely be thinking of you tomorrow and keep you in my thoughts and prayers. I know everything will go well, and I look forward to hearing about your experience!

My surgeon didn't give me a pre-op diet. Maybe I should start my own.......But my hubby is like "Let's eat this! It will be your last time in a while." And I'm like yeah your right....lol Are you just drinking Protein shakes?

      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!
