So I was sleeved on 4/19. Tomorrow I will be one week post op and everything is going pretty smooth so far, other than some discomfort when drinking too fast or too big of sips. My only issue is some swelling and soreness under my left breast on my stomach. My stomach sticks out a bit farther on that side which is weird. Is this normal? My first post op appointment is Friday but I’m kind of concerned...

Surgery Twin 4/19 :) I have my post op appointment tomorrow I’m so ready to be advanced on my diet I’m sick of Clear Liquids. I get the discomfort when I drink to fast as well. I’ve heard that’s normal. My stomach seems a little bloated hoping that goes away. I’ve lost 14lbs so far I’m pretty proud of my results so far. Sounds like everything is pretty normal what your feeling :) keep me posted on how your appointment goes.

I was sleeved 4/13 and had my post op appointment today. I lost 10 pounds on pre op liquids and 10 pounds on liquids post op. Starting purée/ soft diet for next 2 weeks. Have bought some of the bariatric pastas and add salmon or tuna for extra Protein. Had some pretty wicked spasms initially when I drank too fast but they seem to have abated. Still a little swollen in my upper mid section as well but as this is where the incisions are I think it’s normal.

I'm one day post op. Came home today feeling pretty good. A little gas pain, but other than that I'm good. Getting some much needed rest.

14 pounds is such a great loss! I’m proud of you! I’m curious about what to expect with weight loss, do you mind sharing your pre surgery weight?

      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!
