I went back to work (office job) 7 days after surgery, I didn't have any issues.

@@alinakravchuk - yes, resist telling everyone where you have been. "Eating less, moving more" is all the explanation I gave for the weight loss. Wait until you see who is supportive of your loss and who is going to be a bitch. You won't be able to tell until that happens.

8 day after for me. Glad to be back. I just called all of us together because there were various rumors. I first I confirmed my penis reduction surgery and that explains why my pants are already loose. Then I told them that I had an alien baby in my stomach and there will be constant growling. I did slip in wls before mentioning that I was doing the Mexico Water diet to constantly flush EVERYTHING out of my body and that I would be loosing weight one toilet flush at a time.

I went back, but my boss was the only one that knew I had surgery...she supported me fully. The only problem I had was having light headed moments, especially if I bent over. That lasted a few weeks, but now is gone. You will do great! Just don't push it

I was back on day 7 as well. I am 1.5 weeks out so today im finishing my first week back. My boss told me to come and go as tolerated my first week back. First two days i worked half days mainly due to headache and post op appt. you will be tired so be prepared. No lifting and walk when u can. The biggest issue i had was not remembering to sip sip sip because of being busy at work. I think the lower amount of Water helped extend my tiredness and headache.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      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.
