You're not the only one with low energy. You can add me to the list, but I had low energy long before the surgery. I think my problem is the combination of sleep apnea and COPD that keeps me from getting enough rest/oxygen.

I feel like crap a lot...but than I also feel okay a lot of the time. I tend to vomit a lot, Im having acid issues in my baby tummy. Which causes me to feel dizzy a lot and lightheaded. With all of that said, I still wouldnt trade not having the surgery,some days I really miss eating like a normal person, but than I remeber my starting weight and size, and where I am right now, and it replaces the head hunger. Im glad to be getting healthy, even if it means having a baby tummy for life.

You guys don't understand how happy I am reading these. Everyone always posts about good things. I thought I was the only one. Although I do not vomit my stomach feels funny most of the time. I also can barely fit anything in my stomach without feeling uncomfortable. My lightheadedness got a bit better, but now I have lost feeling from my ankles to under my belly button. Spoke to the Doc and I need to start taking thiamine. I love my results, but this is really hard. I need to start working soon and It takes me a while to get going. Just unsure of what to do.

I think the stomach thing for me got better around 5 months.. I feel pretty good with eating no more queasiness. As for the exhaustion I'm hopeful that I will be back to normal in a couple of months, it's a big thing we did to our bodies and I think for some if us, it takes longer to rebound.

      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!
