Recommended Posts

Hi everyone I'm still at the hospital was told I'll be released tomorrow.

I hate pain and I'd say this is probably the hardest prt of this journey. However the surgery went smooth. They said I am doing well.

For any of you whom may follow my other content I lost the 5 lbs as needed prior to yesterday I was 236.2 when I checked in :)

Look forward to meet size 8 and maybe even 6 if they want to be friends :)

Well, congratulations all around...losing the presurgery weight and for being sleeved. So, an offical welcome to the losers bench. I am sure size 6 or 8 want to be friends soon.

Hope you continue to have a speedy recovery. Remember to sip often.

Welcome new sleeve sister. Take it easy and rest. Walking with help with the gas pain. The more you walk the faster they will let you out of the hospital.

      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!
