I've been so impatient, and so excited, and suddenly it's time to go. I wouldn't say I'm nervous, but I am feeling so overwhelmed, with so many different emotions. Ahhhhhhh! :o :o :o :o :o

Wish me luck everyone!

Best of luck! It is perfectly normal to be all of those things, including nervous. Can't wait to hear how it all goes for you :)

Just got home from the hospital! I'm feeling soo much better than I was yesterday. Walking is still a little difficult for me but I'm doing it as much as I can. liquids seem to be going down alright, including the skim milk they gave me (so happy I can still tolerate milk! I love milk). I have a ton of gas, though. Any suggestions on how to relieve it? I'm talking about intestinal gas, not the gas pumped in during surgery. That gas is slowly going away from walking. :)

Gas-X strips or chewables help a lot! Walking and heating pad. Congrats!

      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?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

        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.
