Good luck to you! I am early AM tomorrow, but my surgery center is 4 hours away so I'm leaving tonight after I sit the kids down for dinner. Give us a shout tonight to let us know how it goes.

Tomorrows the BIG day!! Super excited but not about the dos (discomfort of surgery), but about this new journey or chapter in my life! Prayers for successful surgeries & recoveries for us all!

I'm excited for us also! And I agree I'm nervous about the dos also!!

It is the worst pain ever. I had my gallbladder out and a hietal hernia repaired at the same time so they said my pain would be much worse than just a sleeve. I just hope the pain chills out soon!

I'm so nervous about tomorrow. I haven't been nervous until today! I'm having a tubal ligation at the same time but that's not why I'm nervous.

Mine is tomorrow, and I still haven't gotten a call about what time to be there! I'm going to call them if they don't call me in the next ten minutes. Like I need to worry about them forgetting to schedule me!

Otherwise just gathering up a few things to bring to the hospital - toothbrush, book, phone charger, pillow....

Made it through pretty well. In pain but expected. Can't sleep so thought I'd drop a quick update. Was told I'd probably be here two nights. No fluids yet. Have to have upper GI first thing and then I can attempt drinking. Keep brushing my teeth because all the iv meds give me a terrible taste. Blech. Moving around pretty well.

      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!
