sore but getting there



Recommended Posts

Here I stand (lie) before you, with a band of my own.

Apparently there was some drama with me in theater, oxygen levels dropped, but its all good now. I feel very tender and sore, but saying that, compared to yesterday, i am feeling pretty ok.

Not feeling any hunger, forcing myself to drink Water regularly and have the occasional teaspoon full of Soup.

In one week, on my preop diet i lost 9kg.

more soon

You were banded yesterday, right? I was wondering how some of the rest of you are doing! I'm glad you didn't have to know about the "drama" until after it was over! :)

Hope you're feeling well today! I woke up pretty sore but the painkiller is beginning to work and the heating pad helps as well. Take care!

Glad you both are doing so well! And it only gets better! At 2 weeks and one day post-op, it was like someone drew a line in the sand and suddenly, I felt terrific!!

Congrats to both of you in the new life you've chosen...

Good luck to both of you - I wish you a speedy recovery. It is true - it only gets better. I'm 11 days out and almost feeling like myself. The heating pad really did help me.

Hi, Patty! It's good to hear from you, too! I'm glad you're doing well! I'm feeling a little more sore than yesterday but still more of an ache than pain. And some aches have gone away. It's mostly my upper abdomen that is bothering me today. So I'm still taking it easy and I'm sure it will improve.

Take care and be sure to check in as you feel like it!

      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!
