Awesome!!! What was your weight on the day of surgery??? For me, I needed to lose weight, but my issue was more about the impact of having diabetes, high lipids, triglicerides, high BP etc. I am off all of my T2DM medications and my blood glucose levels have been normal. Losing the weight has been great, but the change in my glucose levels under control has been the most important aspect of this for me.


279. I have high blood pressure and I have a follow up medicine check to determine the steps moving forward.

Wow - that is great regarding resolving your medical issues. Good job!! You have to be here for your family and friends!!

You're 100% right!!! I have two little girls, 7 and 3. They need their daddy!! My grandpa was just like me--diagnosed with diabetes at 44 (same as me) and had the same stomach. He had his first heart attack at 46 and lost his leg to T2DM at 57. I am not going down that road if there is anything I can do about it!!!!!

Very nice progress, your little ladies are lucky to have MAMA as good example, maybe they won't have to go through what we have by now. ❤ & Prayers.

      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!
