So, have any of you had bloating related to pms since surgery? Yesterday I was very very umm, angry? Emotional? Pms-ing! Lol. Anyways, today I am uncomfortable with this damn bloat! Wondering if anyone else had this and felt more uncomfortable than usual after the surgery? Also, everyone please take a moment to say a prayer, send out positive vibes, whatever your thing is for Simply Southern if you haven't already. I'm so worried about her and I've been praying and thinking of her all morning. I hope we hear something soon. :(

Still not losing weight. Gained 5 pounds while I was getting dehydrated. Dr said it was my body trying to retain what fluids it could. Then lost 2 after not being dehydrated anymore. Weighed this morning to find out I've gained the two back, stopped weighing everyday cuz it's just so disappointing. I'm about ready to throw the scale out the window. i walk about 40 minutes each day and just don't know wth is going on. I'm getting fluids and Protein. Any ideas or similar experiences?

I haven't taken any pain meds. I guess I have a high tolerance of pain. I used the button twice in the hospital but it was only to get some sleep. the other lady snored soo bad.

Maybe your weight gain is due to your period coming too? I was losing quite quickly but the last time I weighed I gained 2 lbs and it's the same today. Bet when Aunt Flo comes it'll go away! At least I hope!! I HATE Aunt Flo!! Lol.

I think your body will fight the process for a bit. It is holding onto whatever it can. Don't worry, I am sure the weight will start coming off. I decided to weigh only on Fridays because the day to day is up and down so much. It's hard to wait a week, but I think it gives better accuracy at where you are at. Good Luck. Don't be discouraged!! You got this!

      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!
