I recieved my letter with all my preop appointments in the mail Saturday evening. They changed my Date to 09/25/12 :o ... my first lab appointment is 09/11, I also find out about my preop diet then, and my class is 09/13...

At one times it seemsed like everything was dragging... now I feel like it's all down hill ... I'm excited and a bit nervous.

Congrats on your surgery date. We have the same date 9/25. What was your 1st date? I know the feeling. I have been waiting since July when I got my date. I had my pre op nut class Tuesday and start 2 week diet Monday she said we could start now to get a head start. Just have to go grocery shopping then I'm good. Best of luck!!

      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!
