Well I thought this day would never arrive. I finally have a surgery date June 4th. My pre-op is June 2nd. I cannot wait to start my journey and new lifestyle. Where can I find what all I need to pack for the hospital? I had seen a thread and now cannot find it. How do we get tickers? I'm so new to all of this on this website. Any and all advice is needed and wanted. I know everyone's experience is different. I'm hoping to make new friends. Hope to hear from you. Hugs! Teresa

Congrats on getting close to your date! I am currently waiting to see my surgeon to get my surgery date. I go see her on June 10th and I can't wait to get started at living a healthy life.

May God Bless You!

I am getting banded on June 5th. Have been jumping thru all the "Insurance Hoops" also. I have to attend 6 group sessions, wish I could skip all that and just get on with it!

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      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?
