Are you looking for the BariatricPal Store? Go now!

Recommended Posts

Is there a particular part of this website where users can start a journal of sorts to keep track of their journey? (I have yet to see my surgeon so I don't fit into any particular type of WLS though I suspect due to other health issues I have I will end up with the sleeve.)

Thanks in advance!

Do you mean like a blog? Or a chart of your weight loss?

I don't believe so. However, depending on the smart phone you have there are apps to help accomplish this. The one I have used and recommend is Blood Pressure Companion from the App Store. It's free and great way to trend daily BP's.

No, just a thread that I can continually update and have fellow Bariatric Pal users give their input or feedback as I go along my journey.

      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!
