The two days after surgery are rough. I dealt with nausea and pain. I threw up twice the day after. Walking around after a few minutes made me fell sick. Yet, every day gets better. I had the surgery on a Monday and went home on Wed. My recovery is actually going well now. I was off of the pain meds by Friday.

I am still on a clear liquid diet :-( I get in a minimum of 40 oz. or liquid in a day. I take a Multi-Vitamin (centrum chewable), Biotin, and allergy meds, for now. I have no trouble swollowing the pills. I am still working on getting my Liquid Protein in. I am not a big fan of the shakes. I will be starting the puree phase next week. I rarely feel hungry but I miss chewing food!!

Surprisingly, I don't feel fatigued. I started work yesterday and I feel good.

Right now, my pain is rare and minimal.

I've lost 14 lbs since the day of surgery.

Advise: Take one day at a time. Each day gets better. Follow your doctor's diet to a T. Weight yourself every morning. Sip, sip, and sip some more. Walk, walk and walk some more.

hello, I said the same thing - as for me doing good lost 30 since the surgery of 9/2/11, I have some good days and some not so good ones, they said you are not supposed to be able to feel hungry pains and I said bc. no one knows i had this done, and people are starting to notice and it pissed me off at work on saturday night l most lost my cool. had to make a few phones calls to bring it under control, I just never thought about the process of what others will see or think - because it is my life, and it not there business.

other than that I hope the weight comes off slowly getting in the habit of exercising now I will give this my all......

      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!
