Well got the call today letting me know what time to check in tomorrow and 11am it is!! It's a little later than I would've wanted but I'm not going to complain.

I also found out I have no out of pocket cost to be paid before my procedure...it will be covered 100%!! I guess with all my pre op stuff I met my max, which I know I have to pay but I've made arrangements on all those balances and have a nice low monthly payment so I couldn't ask for a better outcome ????

This experience has been so smooth and positive and I have to give all thanks to God. I'm ready for my new beginning and can't wait to see what's in store for me in the future!!

I was supposed to check in at 1045am for a 1215pm surgery. Ended up having my surgery after 9 pm because of an emergency right before mine... Good times.

Best of luck to you and your surgeon and here's hoping for a quick and easy recovery for ya.

Hello everyone I am still in the hospital but I'm going home today. My surgeon said the surgery went very well I'm just having trouble tolerating the pain. It's mostly on the one side where my big incision is all the others are fine. Once my pain goes down a bit I'll be fine because besides that I don't feel any different, makes me wonder if they really did anything in there lol.

Blessings to you all! I've been home most of the day doing well just been sipping as much as I can and walking around my house trying to get this gas moving. I don't have any nausea or any trouble getting fluids down. I don't feel hungry or crave food at all so I have to remind myself to sip otherwise it just slips my mind.

I'm really hoping to move past the pain/gas stage so I can move into the weight loss phase cuz to be honest weight is the furthest thing from my mind. Right now I'm focusing on staying hydrated and eliminating this gas. I'm going to start on my protien shakes in a couple of days hopefully I can tolerate the taste because nothing is tasting good these days.

I sure hope you all's surgeries go well and we can keep all keep in touch ????

      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!
