Recommended Posts

I remember how excited I was the few days leading up to surgery, but especially the early morning of surgery.... I could hardly wait to start my new life!

I remember not being scared at all and only a little bit nervous, but overwhelmed with excitement!

My surgery was 11/14/16.

Congratulations on your surgery and I wish you the best and a speedy recovery! :)

Hello all... Thanks for the well wishes. I've been sleeved now for only 12 hrs. I'm still in the hospital until tomorrow. I can have anything by mouth until tomorrow but the cool b part is I'm NOT even hungry. I am however in a little bit of pain but not tooooo bad. They fount a henital hernia while I was in sugary and they they repaired that as well... I'm ready to get some liquids tomorrow, my mouth is SUPER DRY. I've been up walking and I'm about to go again. Thank you for all your kind words and I'll keep you posted.

How are you feeling are you home yet?




I got home yesterday and I'm feeling better than I expected. I've been doing a lot of walking which has helped. I've been sipping Water and eating Jello here and there..... I had a little phlegm in my chest and it was so painful to cough up but I finally got it up. The only problem I'm having is the DISGUSTING store bought broth. I have to find something else ASAP... Thanks for checking on 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.

        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!
