Scheduled for December 19th!



Recommended Posts

Hi I'm new to this forum but I'm so excited to be a part of a community that understands this process! I am scheduled for surgery on December 19th. It has been a long road to get to this point but I am thrilled to begin this new chapter in my life! At 25 years old I feel like this is the perfect time to change things for the better! I hope to connect with people here and hear about other struggles and success. Cheers!

Hello-same day as you! You are so young, I’m sure you’ll heal well. I’m 45 and should have done this 10 years ago!

We are almost twins, I will be January 19th. If you need someone to chat with, let me know! Did you find this out in pre surgical testing?

      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.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      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!
