Wish you all the best! Just had my done last week and I feel great - as if nothing happened. Just be prepared for a little pain when you wake up from the anesthesia - or hopefully you won't go through that. Take care ????

When u read this is hope everything went well. Your first days might not be what u expected. Some do very well and have not much pain. Others have a rough couple of days. At first i felt great when i was at the clinic but as soon as i got home i felt nauseas. I kept telling myself i hate this, but now 7 days post op i feel great. No nausea or pain. Best thing i ever did. I even feel embarrased for being such baby but then again its ok. We are aloud to act like that after surgery. Reading this forum on other peoples experiences really help. Good luck

Well a little ober 24 hours and i feel a lot better than what i did yesterday. I didn't feel like talking or texting anyone, i had my mom and a friend come by and i was so drained and in pain that talking made me hurt. I also had a hernia where my esophagus and stomach met so my doctor noticed that during surgery and stitched it up, that also added a lot to my pain. Today I'm doing much better, I'm walking, talking and also just had my lunch..cherry sugar free Jello and chicken broth..yummy. thanks everyone for the well wishes i really appreciate it!! Oh one more thing when i first arrived yesterday i weighed 248 today i weighed 257.. one week ago before i started my preop diet i weighed 259...

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      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.
