All the April 9 people ready for tomorrow??? I'm excited and nervous and overwhelmed. And starving hungry! 5 days of the liquid diet is enough. I really feel for the people they have on liquids for 2 weeks. By this time tomorrow, I should be getting settled into my room post op. And then the real work begins! Best of luck to anyone taking the plunge tomorrow. :)

I am ready for my surgery today. Got a great night sleep (worked all day cleaning and running errands that I was exhausted!) good luck today!!

I have been floating on air all day. The coordinator called last week to say my insurance approval was in and that she sent my packet to the surgeons office. The surgeons office called yesterday to make my appointment and I was able to get in this morning. They called this afternoon with my April 9th date!!! Woooooo hooooo!

Good luck today. You'll do great. It's a breeze.

I check in at noon, Pacific time. I'm starting to get super anxious. Seeing the kids off to school was kind of a bummer.

Checked in and waiting with my family for now. Next step is down to holding and then the OR. Trying to not get too nervous. Any of the earlier people out and up yet?

Hi all, I had my surgery yesterday on April 9 too. I am in Australia so although the same date, i am a day ahead.

I can't believe how good I feel. I finally have had some broth tonight after having only Water for the last 48hrs. Who knew salty warm Water would taste so good!

All the best to you all - am going to sleep again now as my pain meds are kicking in. To better, healthier and thinner us!!

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      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?
