Doing great so far....ill be 10 weeks post op this week and I'm currently down 75 lbs (25 lbs lost pre op). Feel excellent! How about you?

That is an awesome loss!! I am 2 months tomorrow and down 26lbs. (maybe more I will weigh tomorrow morning) However, this was a revision for me. I had an RNY in 2004. Revision to RNY 6/28/12. I feel great and went back to work after 1 week 2 days. (I have a sit down job) I need to get better with my exercise. Have you contacted Joe for your exercise consultation?

Yes had my consult on Saturday.

How was the consultation? How long was it? I found the paper with the next support group date of 9/6/12 at 6pm It is at North East Heath and Fitness Institue 1090 NorthEast Gateway Court in Concord.

I won't be able to go to that one as there is a meeting at the children's school that night.

It lasted about an hour....he has you do a walking test to see how much your heart rate and bp goes up. Then he shows you some toning exercises with the bands, tubes and ball. Also goes over how many cals you burn per minute doing certain activities at your current weight. He was really nice....nice to look at too ;-)

      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.
