I have less than 24 hours until I'm sleeved! I can honestly say that as the day is going by, hunger headache is kicking in from liquid no food. Today was my last day at work for 4 weeks (not that it matters, in there for an hour) and now anxiety and nervousness is controlling my thoughts of the unknown yet, I can actually picture myself healthy and fit! On another note, my mom asked me to cook fried turkey chops with rice and corn, imagine that!????I told my husband and he said baby don't worry about cooking, I know what you're going through, I fix something up....❤️my mind is a wreck! What did you post-oppers do the day before?

I actually spent the entire day making three different meals for my 16 year old son, doing three loads of laundry, cleaning the entire house, including changing the bed sheets, washing my hair, drinking three Meal Replacement shakes and 64 plus ounces of Water. Well as I was about to settle for the night, around 9pm, my girlfriend called and needed me to create a flyer for her on my computer. Yes, I do this for her quite often. She was calling from outside my front door!!!! Yes I let her in and spent the next two hours working with her. No, she had no clue I was having surgery the next day. I told no one. Cooking for my son didn't brother me because I was on a two week pre op diet and my hunger and interest in food went away around the 9th day. All the best on surgery day.

      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.

      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!
