Hello every body,

My name is Cecilly'Cera most ppl call me Cece. I am 23yrs old && a mother to four beautiful children. A few months ago I was laying in bed doing homework, my then four year old at the time, says to me, "Mommy lets go outside && play." My response, " Not right now son mommy is tired." My son then says the words that broke my heart, "But mommy your always tired && don't like to play with us." It was then that I realized I needed a life changer. At the beginning of all of this I weighed 297 lbs. Today four weeks after surgery I an 254 lbs. The surgery has changed my life already && I am glad to find a support group to talk to && get new ideas from.

Welcome to the board ! First of all I'm glad that your surgery went well. I wish you all the luck on a healthy New Life . Sounds like you're doing fantastic! My gastric bypass is scheduled for May 14th . I'm a little scared however, the benefits outweigh me being scared ! I have three teenage boys that I have to keep up with . I'm determined to become a healthy person on the inside and out. Nice to meet you and keep us updated on your progress !

Surgery date: May 14, 2013

      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!
