New To This Amazing Group!



Recommended Posts

Hello everyone, I am new to this group. My husband and I started this process back in March and we are going for our last nutrition visit tomorrow. It's been a long 7 months with the many different dr apt's but its worth it as this opportunity is going to change both of our lives.

Thank you for the welcome. We are excited & nervous at the same time. I am glad that we are going thru this together. After 4 kids and the constant yo yo of dieting we are ready to make changes for our new start on life. I read a lot of the posts on here and am touched by the support everyone offers each other. When we go for our last nutrition visit tomorrow we will be scheduling our pre-op visit. I can't believe we are finally at this point. Good luck to all of you and thank you for sharing your stories. :-)

PaulB is right! This is a great place and everyone is very helpful. It has been a blessing for me. I have never had surgery and being able to ask questions and read what others have openly posted has been a blessing. Good luck to both of you!

      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!
