I am not even two months post op yet and I am feeling so, so much more like my old self!!! I feel wonderful. I have taken so much wt off my knees and yesterday I was able to do some heavy housework and have been working in my yard, and cooking and being the wonderful wife I used to be, as well as riding my Airdyne for 30 minutes. It feels AWESOME!!! I, like others, wondered the first 10 days what on earth I had done.....I had some depression but worked through it and stayed on course. I followed my doctors plan and still do, exactly what the team told me to do and I have had no dumping, no pain, and knock on wood, no stalls. I feel, already like I am in a different body. Before surgery , a sz 2X was tight on me, and I was so uncomfortable in my clothes. Now a 1X is loose and comfy. I just want those who feel so uncertain to know good things are ahead, Stay the course, keep your eye on the prize. Read my previous post..."what I have lost and what I have gained"...wishing you the best.....

      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?
