T-minus 2 weeks before surgery!



Recommended Posts

I have been waiting it seems like forever, the last 4 years to have this surgery. Everytime I was close something would happen i.e. changing of insurance and would have to start over. This time I have been waiting since April of last year and I am finally 2 weeks away from having gastric bypass!!! Yay for me!!! I am currently on a liquid diet that my physician put me on and I've already lost 10 pounds in 2 days. Which I'm sure was Water weight but hey its a loss. I want to lose 187 pounds!!! That's a person and a half!! So glad I'm finally at this stage and it won't be long before I start shedding the pounds with the bypass and exercise. I'm just so excited. Ready to begin this new life and see where it takes me!!! I'm a registered nurse so I know that the loss will help me tremendously for my career. How is everyone else doing with thier liquid diet, if u have to be on one. Tell me how excited you are for surgery!!! I can't wait

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      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?
