I see that you're appointment with Dr. Zelada is today. I have an appointment with Dr. Zelada on the 6th of June. A coworker of mine had her surgery done by him and she really liked him! She said he was cute. lol Let me know how it went! I'd like to hear what I have to expect when I see him in June. Thanx and good luck!

Congrats! I can't wait to see him in June! I hope to have my surgery no later than July while my children are out of school. What does he ask during the visit?

Congrats on getting one step closer. I'm also a kaiser patient, going through WLA. How long did it take for you to get the call to schedule your appointment with the surgeon?

      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!
