I remember they tried to give me some liquid Lortab before they released me from the hospital...I couldn't get that stuff down; I think I would have to be in some awful pain to use that, and I've had to drink some pretty horrible stuff for other tests and such

I am struggling a little with pain and nausea. I am scared to death to put anything in my mouth. Reading everyone's that is far out post op writing about this time being a vague memory helps :-). I called the md office today and told them I feel worse than I did the day I left the hospital. I think I need to drink more... It's scary for me though...

Sleeved 6-4. Two day hospitalization surrounded by NICE folks with lots of experience in bariatrics. I am a lucky one, no nausea at all. Some discomfort and will continue to take pain Rx. Working to get fluids and Proteins up in the next 2 weeks. All in all doing well!

This is one of those things you just have muscle through. Theres no trick to make it easier. Get extra sleep if you can and stay away from the TV.

Feeling a little better this morning took a pretty long walk, made my son breakfast, did dishes etc then took another nap ;-) I definitely have kept the tv off pretty much. I've been out to my garden a couple times to to yank a weed or two. I have only gotten three milkshakes down since coming home. I'm going to try to get another one in this afternoon. Each day is a little better, I am just looking to be better right now :-)

      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!
