Congrats!

Which surgeon did you go with?

I remember you were asking about Advent and TGH, and maybe another.

Dr. Gonzalvo with Advent Hospital Bariatric Center. Very experienced surgeon, very comprehensive and organized Bariatic Center. Love how they assign a "Navigator" to each patient to schedule and track all pre & post Op requirements. Very easy process. In house Dietician is really good too. Brand new state of the art sugery center in the Hospital awaits me!

Congratulations to you. I’m just waiting to find out what pre op diet they are going to put me on.

I asked for Steak & eggs, Fried chicken with cheese Cake, but they did not agree. 😄

I have my final consultation on Oct 27th. My case manager said she thinks my sugery will be mid to late November. I am a little nervous but really am ready to go

      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!
