Update from "Can Anyone Relate"



Recommended Posts

Two weeks ago I had a post regarding problems that my fiance' and I were having regarding weight issues etc. First, I'd like to thank everyone for their support and opinions. Secondly, I'd like to let you know that after that night we had a long talk and it seems that his insecurities are coming from other issues we are facing, not specifically weight related. We are seeking counseling with our Pastor before our wedding, and fiance' has even agreed to follow the stages of the post-op diet with me. It's amazing what a little support and unconditional love can do--(not to mention being open and honest which sometimes facing my demons can be difficult too) Just an update for anyone who may have read my post.

My surgery is 12/28 and I am beyond excited--nervous but excited!

Take care!

Great news! Good luck with your surgery! I have a great Hubby but he could never hack to post op diet so cut the guy some slack -- just willing to try it is farther than most "others" would do -- you're lucky!

      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.

      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!
