What do you want to say that you can do 6 months after your surgery?



Recommended Posts

I haven't had my surgery yet but I'm so proud of my current weight loss and all I see and feel is all the things I couldn't do before now looking very possible...

I can stand with my feet together(touching)..always a challenge with huge thighs

I crossed my legs half way...looking forward to the full cross

I ran for a bus...like took off and left my husband standing in amazement!!

I ran as a workout instead of my normal brisk walk

I can pick my 16 year old up off the floor, she weighs 115

I want to be able to beat my husband in a foot race

I want to be a pro at Yoga, daughter got me started on intermediate level

I want to wear an all white form fitted dress

I want to sit on the bus and not take up so much of the seat that no one else wants to squeeze in

continue to add to the list...let me see what I haven't thought about....Thanks

I want to be able to go on vacation with my family and 1) ride on the airplane without worrying about if I fit in the seats 2) wear shorts to walk around in the summer heat 3) ride the park rides without any worry about getting kicked off. We are planning vacation almost exactly six months after I'm supposed to have surgery, so it's a pretty serious goal for me!

      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.

      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!
