The hospital just called to preregister me for my surgery on the 4th. They asked next of kin, if I am an organ donor, and if I have a living will. Now I am terrified!

Im on the 4th too. They asked me all of those things also. I asked the nurse why she was asking this. I had surgery at this hospital 4 years ago and they didnt ask any questions then. She said they want to know our wishes but they should never need to use this information.

Very helpful. I'm scheduled for my sleeve on September 18 so I'm excited and nervous at the same time. Reading your blogs have answered some of my questions.

I know! It seems to be inching by, but I'm struggling to make myself 'ready for surgery' whatever that means!

I was at my surgeon's yesterday and he's got me scheduled for September 6th. That didn't take long.

Both pumped and nervous, and not sure which one will win. lol

I hope everyone here has a smooth and no issues surgery.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      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.
