Recommended Posts

Go me! I was in at hospital at 730 and operated on at 8;15. In a cuple of hours i was up and readig. Walking around to get rid of some wind. No pain from the operation. just my bak pain as i was not allowed mypils pre surgery. that was taken care of mmediately. M wonderful nurse tina gave ma a swig of oromorph and I was great. Drinking all afternoon.

I ws ready to leave by 3:30 with full insstructions to keep me going till my fill i 6 weeks.

Today, I just feel a but gassy. no diferent from any other laporascopic investigation. I have 3 tiny hasf inch scars and one about an ince. doubt they will even look like scars. I use dermatix on my scars and they usually all but dieappear. arhica is good for bruising.

good luck

Hi Debbles,

I was banded July 10th. I'm doing great also. I've walked 1/4 mile last yesterday evening. The only promblem I'm having right now is gas. My stomach is so bloated and it feels full of gas. I'm hoping if I keep walking alot it will finally pass. I'm glad to hear you are doing so well.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      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?
