Surgery 12/30th second thoughts?



Recommended Posts

Can anyone tell me why prior to surgery I was so adamant on trying to get approved for surgery. Now that my surgery is less than 4 days away..

I am so nervous :(

I'm questioning everything now. It does not help either when you have people in your ear telling you, you need to think about what you're doing, or telling you NOT to do it!!! All these emotions..these negative people around me.

How do i retrain my thoughts? Tell the negative Nancy's to stop....????

Any advice would be helpful.

Thanks everyone.

Your going through the same every one of us that has had surgery went through, it's all normal to feel as you do

I even felt like jumping off the bed as they were giving me my general anaesthetic lol I'm so glad I didn't it's the best thing I've ever done , and you'll feel the same as time goes by

Your going to feel wonderful as the weight drops off

Hang in there good luck xo

Tell them to STFU, STHD, & MIND THEIR OWN D@#$ BUSINESS!

That's been my motto since I decided to take the plunge and get a healthier me! Not dealing with Negative Nancy's or Negative Norman's.......they're just haters of the worst kind. I've seen and heard the reactions from various family members regarding other members having the surgery and I'm not built for jail-which is where I'd end up after beating the brakes off of one of them for not minding their own business (although I could make a very convincing case for a 302 placement! Lol).

      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.

      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!
