Admission at 6:30, apparently I'm first on the list for the day so all going well should be done and dusted by midday!

It's been a long trip since I started investigating the process its kind of funny knowing it'll be done soon and the next stage will start.

Best of luck to you! You're going to do great. I consider my surgery date as my re-birthday! It truly was the first day of the rest of my life.

The first few days are going to be rough. You may have thoughts of "What did I just do to myself?" "Did I make the right decision?" All perfectly normal thoughts and feelings. Just ride them out.

Remember you're recovering from major surgery - listen to your body. Rest when you need to. Walk when you can. Sip your Water - you don't want to get dehydrated while recovering (that happened to me and it sucks). Know that you may not get your minimums for Water and Protein those first few days - do the best you can and get as close as you can.

I'm 10 months out (today, actually!) - short of marrying my husband and having my son, this was the best decision of my life.

Good luck! We'll see you soon on the losers' bench!

      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!
