That's what I'm worried about also!

Actually we're worried about doing it together! We wonder who will look after whom if we are both incapacitated. We really debated doing it separately but what decided me was the pre- and post-op diets. I think it will be a lot easier to keep each other on track if we're suffering together :)

We heard today he has to be on a 14-day liiquid pre-op and I have to do a 7 day liquid pre-op, and I might end up trying to do the 14-day (perhaps slightly modified) with him so he has a buddy.

But I am concerned about driving/flying back when we're both in pain/discomfort.

Lol I think this will make it easier to say since I have noticed there are a few going on August 19 . Anyone on that date who is doing your surgery? I'm going to Dr. Aceves. Wondering if I will have someone with me that day.

      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!
