Recommended Posts

Hey scorpiokutie!

Wow! You've been trying for a long time! Congratulations on sticking to it and getting what you want!

Do you have to do a pre op diet?

Feel free to stay in touch! Guess I won't complain any more about the time it took me.

Debbie

Hi Serenity55,

Thank you very much. I don't have to do a pre-op diet, I was just told to eat light the day before. So I will be doing Clear Liquids that one day. Good luck to you with your surgery!!

Had my preadmission testing today and just waiting to make sure that Feb 10th will actually happen. I had an abnormal EKG and so I had to had an ECHO and a stress test and I think they were OK but have not received official word. THe "pioneers" are adding up and soon we will join them. Let's keep in touch.

Peachwood I'm as jealous as all hell! Well done to you, I guess you paid the price in worry and uncertainty! Good luck everyone - are you all freaking or what? I'm actually quite calm today, not starving too much and not worrying too much. Mostly worried about leaving my kids and husband and making sure everything is good at home so I dont have to do much for the next week. Cant believe its 2 days away! WOW!:cursing:

I have been eating all the things I know I will not be able to have for awhile like bread, shrimp, etc. But not overeating. As of Monday it will be CL for 2 days and then two weeks of FL. I will have to get creative. Need to do a little shopping. Gas-X strips, Miso, Papaya enzyme ( just in case)to add to the regular items.

      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?

        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.
