Thank you everyone. And yes im very glad its been easy so far. Ive heard both sides of the stories positive and negative so yes I was a little scared. But everyone had been very supportive and helpful. I mean my hubby has ate some good looking stuff in front of me but it has not phased me..

I had my surgery on the 8th and am doing well also. I have some pain in my abdomen and moving a little slower but otherwise all the foods I have tried are going down perfectly. My family also laughs at how much I eat now. I chuckle too!

Congrats. Keep those fluids up. Isn't it amazing how you are not hungry anymore. I am at 6 weeks and I can tell you eating will be challenging for a little while but by week 6 you will be able everything your little heart desires within the size limitations. Of course healthy stuff but I must say this is when I have felt normal. I can tell you I feel way better then before surgery. I don't understand how that is given my puny little meals. I would have thought I would be in a very low productivity mode kind of starving to death. But hello, NO, I feel amazing.

Welcome to the other side, the better side! Wait until you see your own pictures and compare to older ones. Don't forget to take pictures. You will love it later.

      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!
