Hello all! My insurance approved my surgery, which will be November 6!!! I am almost there????????. Will be looking for a lot of support, words of wisdom, or any input you can offer! My pre op is this coming Tuesday. I work with children, and, of course have come down with a sinus infection/severe allergies. Anyways, lifting up prayers that I will be healthy as the next two weeks approach. What's the worse that can happen? Delayed surgery, oh well!! Keep on swimming, keep on swimming--right?! Just want to be healthy and have stamina for when surgery is over. Would love a surgery buddy!!

I will pray that your sinus infection/severe allergy dissolves away and does not affect your upcoming surgery and that all goes well.

Oh hey, I'm totally on board with the "Keep on swimming" reference! See my pic. ????

Congrats on your upcoming surgery and I hope your sinuses clear before the big day!

I am a second grade teacher and I am scared to death that I'll get sick before Monday. Pray and use lots of hanitizer...that's also known as hand sanitizer to my kids.

Hi Cassie! How is pre op diet going?

It's going good. First 4 days were horrible. But I am ready for surgery!

      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?
