Day 1 of pre surgery bowel prep. Not too bad for the most part. Hoping tomorrow goes just as good, esp after I take the yukky stuff! Can't wait for Thursday!

Congrats to the recent bsndsters! I'm so glad that everything went well for you all.

I am doing my pre op diet and making lists and preparing. I have a lot of shopping to do. Which is fine... I like to shop. :)

Hello all.. 2 days post surgery and I'm feeling pretty good.. One more day of clears and then on to full liquids for 2 weeks. I am so looking forward to a Protein shake..lol never thought I'd be saying that!. Still have some gas but gas-x seems to be working fine.. Minimal discomfort where the insiicions are..I have nothing in my band yet but I am not hungry at all. Gained 8 lbs in the hospital, I guess from the iv but I lost 5 yesterday..I hear that's pretty normal though.. I'll keep you all posted on my progress and you please do the same...this is a new chapter in our lives! I'm ready

I wish I could get my surgery(nov14) moved up also! The person that submits and schedules is out until Wednesday. I am going to try and get mine moved up also!

Same here only a select few know about the surgery everyone else will be under the impression I'm having a hernia repair :)

Surgery in two days. A little nervous but more excited than anything. Can't wait !!!

      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!
