Nothing. Your weight is going to fluctuate while your body gets used to the changes. DO NOT WEIGH YOURSELF EVERY DAY! :smile1: I know its hard not to, but you need to give your body a chance to regulate to the changes. Every single person is different.

Get your Water in - your body will retain everything it can if you don't give it enough Water.< /p>

Before surgery my weight could fluctuate 5-6lbs in the same day. After surgery it fluctuates anywhere between 2-3 lbs. While I still weigh myself everyday, I only count when it has been 7 days and knock on wood it has always gone done. So don't count. You could retain Water, have your period coming, your sodium intake might have been high, while your water intake is down. Just wait until its been a week between the last weigh in.

      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!
