Today is my fourth day post-op



Recommended Posts

And thanks to my wonderful husband, I'm recovering quite well! My surgery was more extensive than planned due to A LOT of adhesions from previous surgeries. My hubby has really stepped up: making sure I'm sipping and getting all my fluids in, my shakes are waiting for me, I'm up and walking and keeping track of all my meds. I noticed this morning that he has a chart posted in the bathroom with what's due when and the doses and times I take them!:-) He told me before surgery, that while I was having the gastric bypass, that he knew it would benefit both of us. And making sure that I recover and stick to the plan is, apparently, his part!!

I am extremely blessed! I just finished drinking some Crystal Light that he mixed my crushed up meds in ☺ We'll be celebrating our 38th anniversary in May! I am very blessed indeed!

      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!
