I had a hiatal hernia repair at the same time as well. The gas pain was hell after surgery.- Do you have BMI 36 or below and had surgery??
I had my surgery on May 1st with a BMI of 34. I am 5’3” and was 193 lbs on day of surgery. I am 142 lbs today. So, I’ve lost 51 lbs in almost 4 months. It’s not easy. It’s only a tool and you have to use it wisely.- Magic Spoon Cereal?
