Hi, I just joined this site and love the comments. I am scheduled for August 14th but it depends on the tests they are doing on Aug 6th and my insurance is still in pending status. I am a bit excited and afraid. I have been 130 pounds overweight for about 13 years. I am ready to see old self again. I am in the pre-op stage doing shakes, little vegies, and low cal dinner. I also have a thyroid problem so this is hard because I am so HUNGREEEEEE......

So does anyone have a good list going of thing they are bringing to the hospital with them?

So far I have my laptop, sundress, flip flops, chap stick and an extension cord... I heard a heating pad would be good too... I'm sure I'll add more to my list.

      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!
