Talofa from Washington Wow you look awesome [emoji1433] I am actually going to have my last dietitian visit January 24th. It’s starting to become real for me. I am starting to get nervous and a little scared but can’t to see where this journey takes me. Seeing your progress makes so happy to see what’s to come.

Talofa Celia! It is scary for sure, I felt the same way right up until I was being pushed into the operating room. Find peace and remind yourself of all the wondeful reasons you need this. Whether it is your health, for your kids, or whatever, always keep those reasons in your thoughts. As soon as they give you anesthesia, you literally knock out and wake up to wondering how quickly it went by! Just like that, you are ready for the next phase of recovery and on the road to the new you! It will be hard at times but you will constantly learn more about yourself, what you are capable of, and take pride in the new you that is emerging. Your confidence will skyrocket and you will feel giddy every time you step on that scale and you have dropped some pounds! I can go on and on but keeping it short, you are almost there girl! Manuia lau ta'otoga ma ia fa'atasi le Atua ma oe! Final advice, get a fitbit or some kind of tracker and if no other exercise...walk, walk, walk!

Aloha[emoji4]

Thank you so much for the encouraging words it’s nice to see another polys progress. It gives me more motivation I really appreciate it. I do have a Fitbit and I am trying to get more walking in before surgery. I look forward to one day sending out a wonderful update like yours.

      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!
