June 15th is my date. pre-op complete, begin diet on 6/8. It's getting real!!

I've not told anyone other than immediate family. I'm curious to see how it plays out at work. I'm taking vacation since I have some carryover to use so I've not had to tell anyone at all at work.

I'm June 23rd! Scared, but ready. I keep looking at my 3 year old daughter and know it's the right thing to do.

I am June 23rd also☺

My surgery is June 12 - one week from tomorrow. But I still haven't got final approval from my insurance. I'm a little worried but dr office said it will be fine. I hope they are right. I'm so psyched up. Start my pre op diet in the morning. Only liquids for the next week. I'm just going to try to keep busy all week. Hopefully the week will pass quickly and my approval will come through. I have my fingers (and everything else) crossed.

same date as me !

My family keeps asking me if I'm getting nervous and the answer is No! I'm excited! I just watched a video of my sons wedding from 3 weeks ago and I think I would have been in tears after watching myself if I didn't know my date was so close. Are you getting nervous yet?

My date is June 15th. I started my preop diet Monday and a modified version the week before. So far I have lost 10 pounds. I'm so ready. Not nervous at all, just impatiently waiting and anticipating a great life ahead with half of me gone!

      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!
