Tonight was the first time I've been to a restaurant since my surgery (7 weeks this Monday). Went to Red Lobster and bypassed the biscuits, salad, appetizer and order 1/2 lb crab legs. Perfect amount and it was delish!!! The waitress really wanted to get me something to drink so I ordered a Water and let it set.

Great night!!!

I am in the middle of month 13 post-op. But I still remember my 1st trip to a restaurant post-op. I had a tablespoon of guacamole, 1 chicken fajita strip and a table spoon full of re fried Beans. Ahhh, memories. :P I was so happy to be eating so little.

Mine was yesterday. To red lobster as well I ordered tilapia with broccoli. I asked the waister to "over steam" the broccoli since I'm on soft solids but still scared. It was all delicious. First time in red lobster I had a to go box haha.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting 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?
