Well my time has finally come. I am to be at the hospital at 6:30 scheduled for surgery @ 8:30. They said I would be 2nd to go back. Very very nervous. Just praying that I'm making the right decision. I think my biggest fear is pain and worried about me being down not able to help hubby & kids. My 15 yr old is going to the hospital with me and hubby will be there soon afterwards, as he has to work tonight. Crossing my fingers he doesn't get a call before shift is over. Good luck to all the other sleeves that are scheduled for this week too.

My surgery went well. I had pain immediatly afterwards, but the morphine helped. I had two bouts of nausea. I passed the leak test and am trying out ice chips and then broth. So far so good!

      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!
