Hi everyon, I just recently have my surgery. It been 6 day that I have it and my problem is that i feel good, I hasn't throw up and I been walking as much as I can so the gas go away but that seem to be a problem for everyone.. cuz It going to sound so weird and it hasn't a week of my sergury and I feel good.. my belly hurts but is not killing

My surgery was on Monday and by Thursday I can tell it was when I start feel the most normal but everybody is driving me crazy cuz they like I should be in bed. I should be outside.. yesterday I went to a birthday party and they were freak out cuz I went.. so do u think is okey feeling this good or should I be resting ? The other thing is the liquid I think I can drink about 7 to 8 onz of Protein in like 25 to 30 minutes and I don't know if is okey cuz that another thing in my house they think I drink to much of If i say i feel hungry is like .. why u hungry, u shouldn't feel hungry with the surgery.. now I feel bad because I feel good... this is so crazy and sorry but I need to some advice

I had surgery on 7/2 along with a few others. One of the others shared at our check up that she is able to drink 4-6 oz at a sitting and is still hungry. She was told not to do it and that she’s not hungry, it’s in her head and that it happens that way for some patients. Also they were concerned that even though she felt good, she could rupture something inside. I use a timer set to go off every 5 minutes to drink my Water and to make the 2oz meal last. You should talk to your team to make sure you’re not hurting anything.

At a week post-surgery I was told no more than 2 ounces of liquid every 15 minutes. As for activity, I walked a half mile the day after I got out of the hospital and I walked four miles the day after that. It truly depends on how you feel and what your activity level was like pre-surgery. Don't do anything that engages abdominal muscles like crunches or stair running, but I was walking small inclines within days after surgery.

      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.

      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!
