Your hormones are in an uproar. You'll be like that for 4 weeks. Or at least I was. Sorry! you can do it!

I'm still hormonal and I am 7 weeks out today. Right now I am crying over birthday cake I cannot have. I think a lot of this is realization I REALLY can't have these things anymore without getting sick. And I am finally making good decisions for my health.

That sounds terrible but good at the same time. Im sorry about the cake thing. This slowly crept up on me. The day after surgery i was crying in the hospital for nothing and also when i got home. Yesterday my mother made me awesome cuban food and i couldnt even have one bite... Im not a sweets fan so i should be good on that side. Hope you get better soon.

I'm 5 weeks today and very off kilter emotionally...I cry at the drop of a hate...I'm obsessing about things I have no control over.....so not myself yet! But I'll get there :) someday!

I felt the same way, when i came back from the hospital i felt overwhelmed. A part of me wanted to be back at the hospital.

Hey guys. It's best to just get some of that emotion out of your system. I went though this for 2 months and it got pretty bad. It's a bad mixture of hormones, food separation, and pain. I promise it will get better, but right now you have to go thought these growing pains.

I have the added joy of a relationship ending,my perfect 8 year old son starting to get in trouble at school for the first time ever, and,most importantly, my mom is on a kidney transplant list (has been for almost 2 years), a week and a half ago she got called to the hospital for work-up, there was a donor on life-support and she was #1 to receive the kidney.....about 8 hours later the called and she wasn't a close enough match to the donor so she was being sent home.....this one really hit me hard :/. I know everything happens for a purpose....mom is doing great, so great that she's not on dialysis yet, the start when her levels hit 10 and she's stayed steady at 11-12 for 2 years solid....it's amazing considering how quickly she was decreasing beforehand. I think we have the kid issue worked out but that was totally draining. And the relationship is what it is, he is an amazing man and I'm blessed to have he and his son in our lives, they are great friends, I just have to one to terms with the fact that that is all we will ever be....

Add the surgery stress, fatigue, overall not feeling well, crazy hormones and what is apparently becoming a weekly crisis in my life, I am fried!!!!

And tank you, we're all pretty much rock stars when you look at how we do this and all we do!

      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!
