How are you doing, Bettyanne?

My surgery is on Thursday. I had some food throughout the last 2 weeks, but the rest of the time stuck to my diet...and now there will not be any cheating whatsoever. A couple times I thought I might pass out if I didnt' eat, and my son had been away for a few weeks...so i had a little bit of a cheat day with him and my girl...felt i needed that to be able to move forward....and I had been broke while he was gone, so I couldn't do a thing...the timing has all stunk.

So, how are you? I know how it can feel lonely sometimes....and when my children--son--is driving me nuts, life with a pre-op diet gets hard.

I'm doing pretty good. Recovering from surgery and pretty bored! I've been staying with my parents all week (they've been taking care of me lol.. I'm 26 but I still need my parents when it comes to this stuff lol). I get one more week off of work. Not sure what I'm going to do! Read maybe... Look for another job lol. Start thinking of recipes for puréed food. I feel like life is consumed by this surgery, but that's okay. On to a healthier life!

I was on the liquid diet for 1 month. Cheated two days before surgery with a stupid sandwich. I regretted it so much and cried for a hour and a half thinking I wasn't going to be able to get surgery. It ended up fine but I should never cry that much over stupid food! I had to wait 13 hours to get an answer if I could still get surgery. Eating that stupid sandwich just wasnt worth my misery. Lesson learned. I've never been more motivated!

13 hours!!!! What for? 2 days? Isn't 2 days long enough for a sandwich to be out of a stomache? I'm worried now....do I have something to worry about? Oh geez.

      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!
