I am looking forward to it.It has taken me almost 3 years to decide and feel at peace with the surgery.If I had had it at any other time I would have failed because mentally I really wasn't prepared.Now I am and ready for a new me.I am so tired of taking meds that hopefully I came come off some of them.Praying all my buddies do great with surgery and have a speedy recovery.

Well ! You will have a new Birthday also to Celebrate, along with a New LIFE !. That's the most important thing.

Remember,,,, this is a s l o w go. So be patient, once this jumps into gear, and you actually start losing.

You will always be on the downhill slide, AS LONG AS YOU FOLLOW YOUR PLAN !

I was banded on 10/26. So we should be on about the same schedule! I would love to be a buddy. Add me as a friend :)

How have you been doing post op? What stage of foods are you on? I'm supposed to be doing mushies for a few more days, but have progressed to real food. I don't seem to have any problem chewing things to get them to go down. Just a hard time getting all my liquids in durring the day. Have you lost any weight post surgery? I really haven't, just a few pounds. I figured that's normal since I was moving off of pure liquids to solid food with very little exercise. But I'm really excited about this journey!

      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!
