Welcome, whatever questions you have feel free to ask. Someone will have the answer. Most importantly follow your doctors orders. Every surgeon is different. Good luck.

Yes, welcome to the group. Lots of contributors and 'regulars' here so keep coming back. You'll find good advice and all the encouragement and reassurance you can stand. October 4 will be here before you know it. And just in the short time since my surgery (8/10), I can tell you that this is the BEST thing I've ever done for myself. Good luck to you!

Welcome to your new home! I can say this is by far one of the most supportive group of people I've ever come across. Everyone has such different yet similar experiences. It's great to bounce questions off such a varied group of people. And if you are anything like me, it helps me from talking about rny non stop to my friends and family that (even if they are supportive) just don't quite understand what we are going through.

And you are less than one month away from surgery!!!

      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!
