I'm headed to work this morning. I'm stressing about it. I work in a stressful environment. I know the job hasn't changed, at least nothing major had changed. But I have, I've been off of work for three months (had a surgery before my bypass). Guess I'm walking in. Positive thoughts.

I hope it went better than you though it would.

I head back to work tomorrow and am a little nervous about it as well.

Thank you for all of the support... the day went well, nothing has really changed, just some new faces. As soon as I got on the unit, it was like I never left. The worst part was getting up so early, and walking into the building. After that it went well.

And I drank so much Water, which had been an issue while at home. I don't know why it was but at work it was easier to get in almost 64 oz.

Kelcified I hope your first day goes as smoothly as mine did.

My first day was good. I was able to get all my Protein and fluids in. Walked around on breaks and took a few minutes a couple of times outside of breaks to walk as well.

      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!
