So I am super excited! I have waited for this for so long! I'm also very nervous. This pre-op diet is awful..I don't think I'm losing much weight. I'm scared I will be hungry after the surgery and ruin it. Ahhh anyone else have crazy feelings going through their minds!?

Congrats on getting your date! My surgery is tentatively scheduled for June 30. I had my EGD today, which was my last big test to pass. I'm nervous too, but all the success stories on here encourage me. Excited and nervous at the same time!

I'm going in for surgery tomorrow morning. I also haven't lost much weight on pre-op, but my PA said not to worry about it.

My nerves haven't fully kicked in yet, but I don't think I'll be able to sleep much tonight!

Congrats. June 17th is my 1 year surgiversary date.

I reached goal at 9 months and am at 132 and maintaining now.

Pre op diet was not hard for me because I was so ready to do this. I was 100% liquid diet from the 10th to the 16th. Surgery first thing in the morning of the 17th and home the afternoon of the 18th.

No complications. No hunger. Normal progression of stages of food and average weight loss with all the stalls as described etc.

You can do this. It's all worth it. I'm 6 pounds under goal and have great restriction and keep a very healthy diet.

Good luck to you and use this forum for support.

      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?
