Why I am looking forward to surgery...



Recommended Posts

Looks like quite a few of us will be having surgery in the next few months. To keep us motivated, excited and focused on the good lets tell what about the surgery or after surgery we are looking forward to :)

I can think of a few things I'm looking forward to but I'll just share one.

I'm looking forward to surgery because even though its surgery it's still a vacation and break from work :)

I want to be able to go horseback riding without feeling like I am going to break the horses back and I want to get rid of all of my big clothes and not have to keep them because I am not going to gain the weight back this time.

Surgery is tomorrow for me with Dr Ariel Ortiz. Really excited

      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!
