I got my surgery date 10/22 and now I am in a panic. I have done everything I have been told to prepare but it all just seems so huge now! I am sure I am making the right decision but the countdown is making me crazy.

how did it go?

I have 6 cuts But like I said they are all barely noticeable. I will get that scary cream and I know it will make them as if they never happened as I have used it in much worse scars and they went away. Don't be scared for real this is great it has been almost 30 days for me and yes I have felt bad some days but it's surgery engine feels bad till everything heals. But the greatest feeling I've had in a long time was last week when I stepped on a scale and saw I had lost 28 pounds that was so great I cried cause over the years I have tried so many ways to even loose weight and never having any luck. This is going to be the great no matter the little scars the bruises and a sick feeling every now and again. But let me tell you the doctors and the hospital that I went to for this surgery have been so understanding and helpful in keeping pain and sickness away. Just make sure you can get in touch with your doctors and that they offer you all the help you need is the best advise. Emory university dr Scott Davis did my surgery and his office is always just a phone call away if I feel bad at all and ready to get me what ever I need to make me feel great.

      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.

        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!
