I wasn't suppose to start liquids till Sat., but I went ahead and started Wed. I have surprisingly been doing good. Trying different Protein Shakes and having a popsicle or Jello (sugar free of course) when I really think that I have to have something other than Water. I weighed in this morning at 323.5, which is down 12 lbs. since Wednesday. Has to be water weight. Praying for the Dec 10th surgeries. Hang in there everyone!

Well today is the big day...getting ready to head to the hospital in about an hour.

'I will be praying for you today and the coming days. Just take everything at a slow pace and know that you may feel bad one hour and much better the next, then a little more pain the next, but it keeps improving and the better stays around longer everytime. Hope this makes sense. I still have some pain meds in me. Pain was very manageable. Do walk as soon as you can and for as much as you can. I could and should have done a lot better in that area.

Wishing you the very best.

      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!
