Really is not a big deal. As a hint the nurse found it easier to access the port if I did a small crunch. Does not really hurt. Don't watch if you think it will bother you.

Try no to be nervous. It is such an easy procedure. The needle won't even qualify as a bee sting. Barely feel it.

I get my first fill on th 19. I will be anxious to see what you think after having it done. Does anyone ever put ice on it before the needle is inserted? I thought that might make it hurt less.

I had my fill 2 days ago and I too was so scared thinking it was going to hurt, she made me do a kind of stomach crunch and I did not even feel the needle. She just covered with a band aid and off I went. Did notice yesterday I had weird feeling in my stomach, not a stomach ache from eating just a small amount of pain.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      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?
