I did my hike to day I went just over 7 miles and a little less than 3000ft. It took 5 1/2 hour and I rested 4 times with a total of 60 mins giving me 270 mins for the day. I am hoping I get my first fill in the morning so no more hiking for me till I start eating food once more, I have 3 days of blended stuff.

I went to the gym for a 60 min step plus class. It is really fun. My grand total now is: 315!!!!!!!!!! I am a little sore, but it is worth it. It was very hot today, 100 plus a 110 heat index. YUK.

Dan I live in Virginia. We are breaking records this week. It is really humid in this area to begin with. No exercising outside at this time, in the gym is healthier this time of the year. I think the entire east coast is being impacted with heat index and no rain!

      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!
