We all weigh very heavy after surgery due to IV fluids. It will come off in about a week! No worries!

I also put on 6 pounds the day after surgery. It is all Fluid. On day 4 it finally went away and I am back to the weight I was the morning of surgery.

Thanks all. Concerned by the surprise of the nurses. Was overnight in hospital so was on fluids for quite a while.

don't panic !!!!!, Its from the surgery. I gained 14 pounds of Fluid, I lost the fluid and then some.

It's19 days after surgery. for me and I'm 23 pounds down. Give it about 4 days and you will start dropping excess fluid and more!! ;.)

How is it going for you? It will help if you do continue to constantly drink... What they said about fluid intake is true....Try diet Peach snapple..its awesome and makes drinking fluids much easier.

Well good look and keep us posted on your progress.

      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!
