I just started a new blog about my past, present and the process that I have had to go through to even get approved for the surgery. I could really use your guys support so please please come to my blog and check up on me to make sure they are still feeding me :)

I have my blog and started it for two reasons, #1 to get people to understand why and what I was doing and give them my perspective if they were considering it themselves, and #2 to get all of my feeling out there so they were not "internalized," which is what causes me to eat. I'll check out all of yours!

I will warn you...I am pretty raw and I use the F word a lot blink.gif If you are offended by Sex and the City or just about any article in Cosmo...don't read it tongue.gif

If you have a sense of humor and can laugh at yourself and this process....then it maybe for you!

There are tons of posts here where people have stated their blogs. It is go great to read about others experiences.

My blog has gotten a little crazy. It WAS about the band but then there were complications, removal, rebanding, and plastics that it is now not only about the band but struggles with the post op life 10 lbs from goal, living in a foreign country, all while keeping all surgeries a secret from the world.

Anyways it is in my signature

      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!
