I am new here (been lurking for months, but this is my 1st post). I jsut had to reply to this post though.

I had my surgery Sept 1, 2009, so I am almost 7 months out. I have not had ANY fills to this point and am down 105 lbs to date. I have PLENTY of restriction, trust me. I had some drama about 4 months post op and had to have my port removed (due to an absess around the part area), so I don't even have a way to have a fill. My dr says he has had a couple of patients that have gone 6+ months before their 1st fill, but they had not lost as much as me. So we are in no hurry to put the port back in.

Just had to put my 2 cents in.

Went for a fill four days ago started with 3.7 and have total of 5cc today. I am way to tight I have to eat Soup for Breakfast lunch and supper. I have tried to eat other things like pringles chips they go down good i have had a very thin slice cheese.I tried spaggetti with meat sauce and it kept slimming up and felt the tight feeling in my chest. So then I just stuck with potato soup which goes down just fine. I sure hope it losens up soon. How long do you guys have to wait till you can eat solids after a good fill??

      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!
