Hi Wecolme. I'm from NC to, Raleigh. My surgery was done June 22nd by Dr. Yoo. 6 weeks out and 23 lbs down. I do feel good and am starting to really get into the workout routine.

Good Luck!

Awesome! I'm so new to this... Do you have to attend a learning session prior to seeing the surgeon?

I did. I went to one on a Saturday morning, had my appointment with the surgeon in two weeks, did all my test in a month and then had surgery. I fast tracked myself. I had thought about doing it for so long, I just tried to fast line myself and I did. I can harldy believe it's over and I weeks post op.

Love Duke Weighloss though, they are a great team. Feel free to contact me about anything. I am fairly new, but learning a lot.

      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.

      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!
