Is anybody just exhausted? I saw someone say they walked the mall already??? Holy cow the bathroom and back makes me tired! My Dr requires a full week of Clear Liquids only so I think that's part of the problem... Just not taking any calories or nutrition in..

I was thinking the same thing. I have no energy. I am constantly sleeping cause of my medicine. Have to take that. I thought I would try walking around Walmart today but fell asleep to the idea ha.

I am so afraid of blood clots that my NUT said that I must walk at least 35-45 mins a day. That was my motivation. Yesterday the mall, today kohls.

I think that's amazing! I'm just not anywhere near that.

Today was my first day out. Did some grocery shopping and Christmas shopping. Wore myself out. I had to come home with those lovenox shots. It doesn't seem like anyone else did. I am sooooo tired of them! Glad I got to go out but I did have to take a nap.

I am terrified of blood clots too, but sadly haven't managed that level of movement. I instead get up every hour to 2 hours and walk around the house for 10-15 mins. That wears me out enough.

I know it, those clots are scary - I even purchased a pair of compression socks in the infomercial section of the CVS - supposed to better the circulation & massage ur leg as ur walking

@@ShannonbKSU Are you taking a chewable Multivitamin, chewable Calcium, and liquid B12. I'm also on Clear Liquids and believe these are my saving grace, especially since I'm not taking in the 48-64oz of liquids I should be.

While I don't feel ready to walk the mall, I do feel like short grocery store trips, etc.

I have lowered my pain medication to twice a day. Hoping to switch to just Tylenol after the staples come out! Still hurting but it's semi manageable but it is worse at night time cause I can't get comfy!

I'm not doing well on stage 2 foods right now. I have only been able to drink a little Protein Shake and some Water most of the day. I have been stressed and devastated since Friday when I lost my mother during open heart surgery. I know she would yell at me for not trying to eat like I'm supposed to so I'm going to try to do better tomorrow.

      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!
