Getting Ready For Surgery On June 11Th!



Recommended Posts

Mowed the yard and cleaned my house this morning. Also brushed the dogs up too, trying to get everything ready for my surgery on June 11th. I have to be at the hospital at 5:15am on Monday June 11th. Getting things ready to pack to take with me also. Nervous and excited both. Calm though. My Mom is coming over tommorrow to take me to the hospital on Monday morning and then take care of my dogs at my house and stay with me after I am released hopefully on Wed. evening. I plan on taking my cell phone and lap top to the hospital with me so I will try to post as soon as I am able to. I was told I would be up and walking 4 hours after surgery so around 1pm on Monday I can't believe the day is finally arriving! I started this process in Feb and it has went fast. I have lost 46 pounds so far pre op and wanted to hit a goal of 50 lost by surgery day, 4 more to go. I hope I can still hit that goal.

So happy I found this supportive group!

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      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.
