I am home it's 2 days post op. going well. Just bit of a struggle as far as getting the Protein in on Clear Liquids. I am sipping Isopure I can't sip too much or I get an uncomfortable feeling in my chest so don't know about 60 grams. Will keep trying though. So glad to read about all that were sleeved and did well. It's going to be so exciting to reap the rewards!

Good for you..my first 2 days were great...then they started my fluids... which bought me an extra night at the hospital.. couldn't keep anything down..so now I am on a steroid to help with swelling in my esophagus and I was able to keep down 5 oz of fluids... and it only took 3 hours to get that in...lol...at this rate I will lose 100 pounds in 2 months... joking!!! Things will get better I am sure..take care :)

I'm sorry to hear that and hope the challenges lessen as time goes on. From what I hear each day can be different so I'm breathing no sigh of relief.

We are in it for the long haul now. I hope I won't miss food too terribly. I psychologically miss it tonight. My body feels some hunger but much of it is in my mind.

I really hope you feel better and are able to increasingly hold fluids down.

      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!
