Hi! I'm scheduled on March 20. My doctor wants me to start walking right away. One month after surgery I "should" be cleared for all activities. I think you'll have no problem reaching your goal but I'm sure your surgeon will give you more specific instructions. Good luck!

I was "due" 38 years ago with my baby!!! :lol:

all went well :)

oooooops - thats probably not what you meant!!!! :lol:

"almost immediately" after surgery you should be up and around walking slowly in the "halls" of the hospital

many/most people have gas - walking will help that

as soon as you feel up to it, a little more walking is good

i don't know about walking 3 miles right away :unsure:

start off slowly, always listen to your body, how "it" feels

if you are getting tired/weak - don't push it :wacko:

you just had major surgery :huh:

tummy is going to be healing for awhile

so watch it!!! ;)

if you are feeling fine/good/no problem - walking is always a great excercise :)

some people feel well enough to go back to work within a day or two

your doc will tell you when you can do more "official" activity

good luck

speedy recovery :)

      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!
