The Journey Now Begins



Recommended Posts

Profoundly true, couldn't put it better myself. Its all about expectations when you step on those scales in the morning. I am happy to see a gradual fall, it gives me time to tone up the muscles to minimise saggy skin, though I am fighting a losing battle. I like walking and metal detecting but hate the gym, Which I find very dull. Metal detecting is the best, 4 hours of digging holes is shattering and I sleep like a log :-)

Well now 125 days post op and since the start I have lost just over 100 Ibs. No problem but have allowed the loss to slow down and now can safely go out with the wife for meals etc. I tend to eat just only the starter or share a main with my wife but don't restrict type of food I eat. Photos show just before the op, on the grass next to Wells Cathedral and yesterday on a windy Brean Down walk near Weston-super-Mare.

      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!
