Just sleeved on 8/19 and I had the best surgeon in Maryland. So far all is well. I was discharged on Friday and was on a Clear Liquids for 2 days. As of today I started the full liquid diet which I can now have low fat plain yogurt, cream Soups and 1% milk. My dinner tonight was cream corn Soup w/no corn bits at all by Dole. It was sooooo good. Well, so far so good. Pain is but a dull ache if I bend or turn certain ways. When I eat/drink I have to wait a few seconds in between as I can literally feel the food entering into my stomach and I can hear it as well...lol...little gurgling sounds. I get little tingles of what feels like hunger pains from time to time. Not sure what that's about. No nausea or complications so far. I've already lost 15 pounds since 8/19. I'm getting my Protein in (isopure ) along with my daily Fluid intake goals. And my new addiction is sugar free tropical flavored popsicles-sooooo good! Hope to share/trade experiences with others here! I look forward to my post op appointment.

I'm new here too. I start my liquid diet today which means I am officially 2 weeks away from my surgery. I am starting to get nervous. All the info seems overwhelming at times. Glad I found this site. Everyone is so supportive and there's lots of good info.

      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!
