Hi:

I'm new here. I'm scheduled for surgery on the 24th and can hardly wait. I'm in my second week of Optifast (gack!) so I'm pretty cranky, but I'm not cheating darnit! I'd rather just be cranky <g>. (I'm really sensitive to aspartame so the Optifast is triggering my Migraines all the time).

Looking forward to having the surgery over and done with and seeing you all on the other side.

Amen to that! Had my preop testing today and will see my surgeon for the final consult tomorrow. Gonna spend the rest of the week getting things ready at the house and work. I have lost 15 pounds so far. Hopefully my liver is nice and shrunk.

      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!
