Well, I Made It To The Losers Bench!



Recommended Posts

Was sleeved yesterday by Dr Coirin here in Modesto, ca. I'll be here in the hospital until tomorrow. For now, just sipping Water and walking every two hours. Dr. Coirin did an amazing job and the nurses are taking well care of me.

Worst thing was the xray they did to check for leaks, THE NASTIEST STUFF I HAVE EVER HAD TO DRINK. It had me gagging so hard that we had to stop. Dr. saw what he could and said there was no leak.

Anyway, I think is the best decision I have ever made and I'm exited to start my journey into the rest of my healthy life...

<3,

Veronica

Hi Everyone,

Thanks for the amazing support. :')

You guys are the best.

I just got back from another walk and the nurse came to give me another heparin shot in my stomach. Pain is not bad; keeping up on my pain medication ;).

Talk to you all a little later....

<3,

Veronica

Congratulations!

Funny, I don't mind the stuff they make you drink. Not that I "LIKE" it but it doesn't make me gag. Hopefully I can still say that on Tuesday! LOL!!

My surgery is in Fresno. :)

      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!
