One weight loss dr I had several years ago had one and you step on these sensors on the machine barefoot and also hold some in your hands. From that it tells you your % of fat' date=' Water, muscle, etc. Its pretty cool. Wish my surgeons office had one.[/quote']

Wish I had one at home!!

Thank you! That comment made my day :) my husband went out to get a scale for me. He bought a $35 one which i told him he was crazy for lol but now im thankful for it. I think a trustworthy scalr is worth the money. Also on 6 lbs and 6 days postop, thats what i lost too!! My start weight was 318 so i was pretty high up there so idk of that has something to do with how fast im losing. But dont get discouraged. I have a friend from vst that was sleeved same day as me, start weight was 215 and she just hit 199 yesterday!!! So proud of her but her loss is def slower than mine. Everyone is diff!! We will all get there!!

I agree! My old one was kind of touchy, so right before my surgery I went on Amazon and ordered their highest rated, best selling scale. Soooo much more reliable!

      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!
