My doctor is Dr. Choi also and I'm so excited today is my 2nd day in the prop diet and so far it's not that bad the only thing is that I didn't weight myself when I started yesterday so if I do loose pounds before Monday I don't know how much it will be. Im excited yet nervous. :)

I was nervous too, when I did my surgery she came to see me before I had it done then they escorted e to the room and all I remember is waking up..You will loose weight if u follow the diet that she gave us...it takes some adjusting but together we can do this...I have an appt with her on the 5th, still adjusting but if you ever need a lending ear, or support I am here :)

I'm from Central NY and going to Cooperstown-- I'm close-ish!

My surgeon's office is actually in Utica but they do surgery in Syracuse too and since I was familiar with St Joseph's I opted to have my surgery there. My aunt lives just outside of Cooperstown in Richfield Springs. I'm about 2 hours from Cooperstown.

      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.

        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!
