Curious how long you waited before wearing shape-wear. I want to begin wearing as soon as possible.

Honestly I have always worn Shapewear to feel better, but I did buy some smaller sized stuff today!! :)

What kind? I have wanted to find some that breathe. I used to have some that were made out of a mesh type of material. It breathed so nicely, I never sweat!

I love the Under-the-bra shaper tanks. I didn't wear one for 2 weeks, until after my steri-strips started to loosen and start coming off.

I had to take the strips off! Come of find it in allergic to them and they made my skin boil. :( but as for shaper I to like the under the bra kind! I don't want anything tight but something breathable and hold my belly

I actually wore a post-surgical garment (very similar to a girdle) about 48 hours after the surgery was done. It really helped support my stomach and ease the discomfort.

Once I have the procedure, I plan to wear shape wear asap and use skin firming lotion. Gonna try to get it right and tight without TT, which which I'm willing to do only if needed. I kind of don't think I will need one.

      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!
