Good luck. Just remember to keep your eye on the prize. The stuff that bothers you in the first couple weeks, won't bother you later....and it's worth the wait!

It is so worth it. I had mine on 8/29/2012 and I am down 110 lbs already I was over 400 lbs, so I have a ways to go but I feel amazing!!!! and so will you:) I'm not for sure about your faith but just pray to whom ever you believe in as I will pray for you and make sure you get lots of sugar free popsicles, because you are not going to want to drink, but make sure you try hard to do so. Keep me posted and congratulations:)

So I had my surgery! I hope all is well with everyone else who had it. And yes I did have some moments where I thought "turn and run" but what kept me going was thinking of my five yr old. I bought here a bike for her bday and the whole time kept thinking "who is gonna help her when the training wheels come off?" That was one of many. I am so glad I did it. Thank you again everyone for the support!

      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!
