Tomorrow Is A Brand New Day - Pray For Me!



Recommended Posts

Surgery is tomorrow morning at 7:30am. I have never been a morning person, but I think there's going to be all kinds of changes on the horizon. So far, well since May, I have lost 32lbs. I have never been that successful with a food reduction plan. I won't call it a diet because I didn't change what I ate, just the quantities. I am both excited and some what terrified of my anticipated surgery. Finally. Finally I will get this weight off. The weight that has been weighing me down (pun intended) for years. I want to have fun with my daughters instead of always watching from the sidelines. I want to go see Wicked without wondering if my butt will fit in the chair. I guess that really sums it up: I want! I hope to have this changed to: I did! by next summer. Pls send prayers on my behalf!

Well its day 2 and I feel pretty good. I'm kinda hunched over when I walk, but oh well. I came home yesterday evening. I finally went to bed around 11, but got up to pee about every 2 hours. I bed it I weighed when I got home I would have had a 10lb gain. I weighed today and have lost another 3lbs. They gave me these Sunkist Protein 2oz drinks w/24g of protein when I was in the hosp. They were good! I have looked everywhere but have been unable to find them locally so I order a bunch online this morning. I think I can have 1, 3 times a day and get my protein in for sure. Thoughts?

      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.
