I still have a little over a week to go but am pretty calm. If you are like me you did a

lot of research and have given it a lot of thought and are confident in your decision so I

hope I am like you and am not to nervous.

I was calm until I was on the way to the hospital. I wanted a sedative in the car.

I was sleeved on Nov 12 and I was so calm. I wasn't the slightest bit nervous/scared/anxious. I got one little butterfly of excitement when the surgery team walked into my room to roll me to surgery. My mom and MIL were balls of nerves. I gave everyone a hug and kiss before we left for the OR (mom, MIL, husband, uncle, cousin and niece). They all left the room so the team could navigate the stretcher out to the hall and when we got out of the room, my mom was crying a little. She paid for my surgery and I leaned up to hug and kiss her again and told her thank you for my new life. She really started to cry then and I teared up a little. I was laughing and joking all the way to the OR. That is the last thing I remember!!!

I'm tomorrow morning as well..7:30 AM. I was nervous earlier today until I had to take the kids to my in laws to watch for the next few days. Since I have to be at the hospital at 5:30 am, figured it was better to just have them stay there starting tonight so they don't have to get up so early. Now, I'm just sad and missing them. Once I wake up in the morning I'm sure all the anxiety will start hitting again. Good luck tomorrow! We're going to do great!

      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!
