Hi!

I got back from TJ yesterday and after a good nights sleep I feel pretty good all things consdiered. The experience was not bad at all and I am glad that I did it. I was very nervous about being sick and feeling really lousy. I will admit, the first 2 days were rough, and I was kind of hatin life, but I trudged through. I had a nasal gastric tube for the first 24 hrs after the surgery and I think that is what bothered me the most. I HATED it. I wasnt sick, I have been able to drink fluids pretty well and I feel good!!! I will keep you posted on my progress. Have a great weekend.

Hey Miranda!

I am doing very good! I tried a Protein shake today for the first time and it seemed to sit well. I havent been hungry at all, but know I need some nutrition. It was a real pleasure to have met you as well and I really hope to stay in touch. After the first 2 days, I havent had any problems getting my fluids in. Im so glad to hear that you are doing great!! I have to admit, Im doing ALOT better than I thought I would. Have you heard from anyone else yet? I added everyone to my Facebook and so far everyone except Amy has responded. I better run and finish my shake....lol Take care and keep in touch ( I will too!)

      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!
