I was 37 with three kids when I did the surgery and I have no regets.. It has changed my life in so many ways... Yes I eat different but the trade off is so worth it... My kids and I can do things together, mom can dance and even help around the house without having to take so many breaks..I just got my first teaching job and I can teach all day and come home and still have time for them.... Do what is best for you... Is what you have now the life you want for yourself and your kids? I wanted more for them then just taking care of their mom, I wanted to be able to care for them...

I'm the same Jk. I started this process 12/18 with a seminar and am scheduled for surgery on 2/10. Yes, it's fast. Yes, my head is still spinning. But, I've been thinking about this surgery on and off for years! I think I just have a case of nerves. I'm a natural worrier and tend to always second guess myself. I know this will improve my life. I just need to keep that in mind and not let my worry wart nature get the best of me! Take a deep breath, write all the pros and cons down on paper, and talk with your loved ones more. I'm bless, my have been very encouraging. Hugs to you.

      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!
