yea... yesterday i was making dinner for my hubby (bless his heart, he has been trying to eat out before getting home so i'm not having to make anything... especially those first 2 days).. and i wanted to try it!! i resisted! i made him Soup and i had broth... so it was a nice in between! keep strong! the liquid will be over before we know it and then you can eat with your fam! i admire you for making dinner everyday and keeping strong!

Aw I'm sure that was harder :-/ I have been feeling ok. The second day home was rough! Emotionally mostly. The worst part has been the gas pains. And just overall uncomfortable.

U?

I've got the gas signs in my chest, they aren't painful but I wish I'd get some action. Kinda spooked that when it comes it will be more than my system can handle. Meant to buy some gas-x but forgot now I'm too tired to go to the store :(

      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!
