At first it was a little rough for me.. I'm not good with anesthia so I got sick. I'm down almost 34 pds and thurs will be 6 weeks. My only problem is trying to get all my fluids in.. Honestly it changed my life ! It's deff hard at first but it's all worth it in the end

To me it was deff worth it! No draining tube! That day I was up and walking with no problem feeling good the problem I had was the anesthia made me sick so I was puking because I never handle it good with any surgery . With me puking it was causing pain in my stomach so I was at the hospital a little longer then the usual stay. If your ready to really work hard it's worth it it's not something that jus fixes the problem u deff have to work for the results but at the end of the day being healthy is what matters. I know for me I've been heavier for a while and being 19 with that problem doesn't feel so great! So I've finally started to feel good about getting healthy and doing what's right and I'm shedding the pds

I was only suppose to be there two days but I kept getting sick off the anesthia and puking so they kept me longer until it finally wore off and I was okay. When I was pukin it was putting strain on my stomach and it started to hurt . It usually doesn't happen but in my case it did because I can't handle anesthia

      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.

      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!
