Received my surgery date



Recommended Posts

I finally have a surgery date of March 28th. It still seems so far away. I have had a pretty easy journey so far. I did all my pre surgery testing and I just finished my last dietician group meeting. Now I just wait till surgery. I did receive my 2 week pre op diet. I am glad we have the option between Protein Shakes and actual food.

March 28th is just around the corner! That is nice that you can have the option of shakes or food. My pre-op diet will be 4 Premier Protein shakes a day for a week. I did a short test run of the liquid diet last week; it wasn't so bad!

My original date was March 23rd, but they called yesterday and changed my date to April 3rd because the doctor was busy that day.

I wish you luck! We will be on the other side very soon :)

I am also scheduled for surgery 3/28. I had to do a 30 day liquid pre-op. Not so bad so far, but 4 weeks of only liquids is a long time. Where is your surgery?

Congratulations on your surgery date. I had a two week liquid diet before surgery. Wasn't that bad at all.

      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!
