Surgery in 13 days

Wondering if your hungry after surgery?
The diet is really restrictive which I understand
Also I’m getting a hernia fixed at the same time, I read that the surgery for weight loss can cause hernias.
Anyone have this happen?
 
Hello Carla- I asked my doctor that question, too. The development of a hernia is rare and only indicated for one of the surgeries. (Of course I don't know which one.) I had the sleeve and the doc told me not to worry.
I also worked with a woman who had the joint bariatric/hernia operation. A year later, so far, she's doing great!
