Thank you guys for your support and words of encouragement. It is so helpful. :)

I am struggling too my darling. I am an emotional rollercoaster, worried about everything.. what I'm eating.. what I'm drinking.. what if I do this, what if I dont do that.. blah blah. I'm only down 15lbs in 3 weeks and I wanted faster results. I just bought some premeir Protein Shakes from sams club. they are 30g of Protein in one small tasty shake. 2 of those and I have just about met my protein goals. I am hoping this speeds things up for me. I still have some pain but its going away slowly. I get frustrated, I get overwhelmed, I get regrettful.. Its part of the journey and I have to believe that it will get better and it actually is day by day. If you ever need someone to talk to.. message me and I will be there for you at the drop of a hat. I understand what you are going through and I am going through the same thing. hugs!

Thank you so much for that. It has been really difficult. Sometimes I feel so defeated. I want to do this right. I've lost. Just 22 pounds after all of the weeks of liquid and soft diets. I've been walking everyday and it is working so far. I can't wait for 8 weeks! Ugh!

youre welcome. I know how it feels to read the forums where people just seem to breeze right through the surgery like its kittens and rainbows but for some of us, it is really hard.

Hey everyone! Just wondering if anyone else is having acid reflux/heartburn since having surgery? I did not experience this until after having the surgery. Anyone have any advice, I'm living on Prevacid AC now :(

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      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.
