Dear Enzochief,

I had surgery on (9/25/07) also. How much weight have you lost in pounds? What size band do you have? I have a 10cc band and my first fill was 4cc, close to yours. My doc said to do Clear Liquids first two days followed by full liquids for two days then on to regular food. I've had some issues with sudden pain that lasts for a few seconds then it alleviates. Just wondering if you are experiencing anything like this. I'm wondering exactly what is happening anatomically.

So far today I have lost 37 lbs. I dont have any pain in my chest but after the 2nd day it hurts to drink anything. My doctor said if i have any trouble I should call him. 4.5cc for my first fill.

Our doctor wants us on liquids the first day of fills and the mushiees and by the third back to regular foods. After a week on the first fill I had no restriction. He said this time you should really notice it more and it should last longer.

      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!
