Recommended Posts

Im 25 married and have Four beautiful daughters. I have been overweight all my life I think my first diet was around d age of 9.It consisted of drinking lemon juice every morning I ended up getting sick I did lose some wait but it wasn't worth it. Anyway frm there I did diet after diet n lost n gained weight. Current weight is 324 my highest weight was 336. I am dedicated full-time to my hubby and kids and I love them and Im happy about that but Im not happy with myself there's lots of things I'd like to do but I cant because of my weight. I decided its time to dedicate some time to myself. Ive been doing alot of research and I decided gastric bypass was a good decision. I was on a six month wait and finally submitted a request on wensday Nov. 21 Im waiting for an answer but its very hard and frustrating. I pray that God gives me this opportunity. Well hello to all andtht was my short intro.

      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!
