Yep......my foot changed. Depending on the shoe I have been buying between an 8 to an 8.5 from a 9. What I really love is that my foot isn't as wide as it used to be!!

My surgery was 11-4-14 and I noticed my shoes a seemed a bit bigger and figured it was me wearing thin socks until I went shoe shopping 2weeks ago and found a really cute pair of bright pink Nike... So I figured I would give them a try only to discover they fit perfect. Then as I looked further I noticed I was I. The children's section a me the fun cute shoes were a child 6.5youth. LoL!

It was great! I never could find comfortable nikes because of my fat little foot however this is no longer the issue......I bought 3 pair that day. And loved it... Not only because the foot is smaller however the children shoes are about $30 cheaper. :) buying 3 pair was almost like getting a free pair of shoes. I can also wear kids socks as well. It makes shopping so much fun post op :) enjoy.

      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.

        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!
