:D Thanks Anna,

Well im now DONE.

And the after affects are worse than i thought,

Although like all of you the pain and suffering is only temporary and ill soon forget about it.

I cant believe how bloated i am and distorted .its pokes out to the left of my body. And like most of you its very bruised.

Any way ill talk more later as i get more energy.

Thanks Mark.:phanvan

Hi Mark, hope you are not feeling too poorly for too long. I will be having my op in January during my down time from work. Good on you for taking this step. I wish you lots of success. Susannah

Welcome to bandland Mark!

Sorry to hear your recovery is being a little slow, but you will feel better before you know where you are. The first week after surgery was quite a shock to me too, although I had thought that I was well prepared as to what to expect. I think my stomach put on an extra 3 or 4kgs of Fluid right after surgery - I felt like I had to carry it around! hehehe! It will soon go away - mine went down after about 5 days, and already has shrunk further (now there's quite a gap between it and the steering wheel, whihc wasn't there before! hehehe!).

Looking forward to meeting you next week at Bandworks - I hope that you are feeling up to coming along by then.

Cheers!

Anna.

      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!
