Gonna Finally Do It!



Recommended Posts

Hello ALL!!! I'm back. I rescheduled my surgery for this Wednesday, Dec 5th. I am more mentally ready for this. I had some serious jitters, but I said to myself, "Girl you gotta just do this for you" Truth is, I'm not going to be happy if I don't. I'm kidding myself if I think I can lose the amount of weight I want to lose on my own. If that was the case I wouldn't have been overweight for more than 10+ years. So I'm going to put my girl panties on and rock this surgery, and ROCK OUT afterwards!! :) I'll keep everyone posted, and thanks again for all the support I've gotten so far!!

I have to start liquid diet now based on my BMI to help shrink my liver especially since I am having gallbladder issues. :P. It will all be worth it though!

      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!
