I just got a call yesterday to schedule my surgery. I thought I would have to do a 2 week liquid diet and I figured that the earliest I would be scheduled would be the 24th. I also thought I might have to go to the November group. Talked to the scheduler today and found out that I'm doing my surgery on Tuesday, Oct 15th. What? Turns out that I don't have to do the 2 week diet. I'm still in shock that I'll have the surgery so soon. I have my pre-op appointments tomorrow and will find out more. Who else is having it on the 15th? I would love to go through this together!

My Dr called a few minutes ago and told me the other Dr's wife just went into labor so they have going to have to postpone my surgery. He's going to call me tomorrow to discuss the date.

It sucks, not because it's postponed... But because I have to drink all this crap again. : (

      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!
