2 1/2 weeks post op I make 3 weeks on Thursday.. I attended the mandatory support group session yesterday .. And since the surgeons office is right next door, I got there early to stop by to get weighed. The nurses are always kind and took me back to weighin.. I'm still not able to weigh at home since my scale does not go to the 400's ..(I bought the wrong one and I refuse to take it back since I don't plan on being in the 400's for very long) anyway I was not really anticipating a big loss since my 1lb weigh in and too my surprise I lost 10lbs ????????I was so overjoyed. It was exactly the pick me up that I needed to go into this meeting. The meeting was great and I plan to go back next month. I was scolded a bit evidently I need to introduce more variety and less liquid. I have been having a hard time with dairy and have been sticking with the one thing that my pouch likes chicken breast Protein Shakes and Water ..

      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!
