Well..after waiting what seemed like forever, I had my consultation yesterday and he scheduled me for surgery Jan 30th. Woohoo!!:clap2: I can't believe it! I'm on my first day of 13 days of Optifast. So far so good, but I just know it's going to get worse as the day goes by. I will do it though. I was surprised he started me on Optifast and schedule me so soon!! No last meal for me..I guess my last meal was cheese and crackers. LOL!!! Jeez...I would have never picked that!! I can deal with it though..I've had 38 years to eat whatever I've wanted...now it's time to stop all those bad habits!! I'm ready to start playing with my kids for a change.

I love this board and look forward to getting to know you guys!!

      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.

      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!
