Ahh well things havent gone as smoothly as i would of liked... I do still have the same band. I had a massive slip and my doctor had to cut through alot of stomach muscle to umm I guess untangle the band. He then had to pull the slip back throug and repostion it, hence the extra pain and its taking so much longer to settle than last time. I know its only day 5 I guess I am terribly impatient amd emotional as the assault leading to the slip wasnt my fault. I am terribly glad I still have my band and extremely grateful for my amazing surgeon and anethatist.

thank you all for the support im pretty cranky and fed up, Wish I could punch a boxing bag!!!!!!!!

Ky, so glad you checked in! That does sound like a bad slip! Thank God you still have your band!

Hmmm, maybe the boxing bag is a thought for a new workout when you're up and about and able to do vigorous activity again! Something to think about! Would be great exercise for both body and mind.

I'm sorry this round of surgery laid you so low. I hope you've got some good pain meds. I'm assuming you have to go through the whole post-op diet regime again?

Hang in there. Things WILL get better and you still HAVE your band!

Take care!

Hiya Heartfire,

thanks so much hun.

I am feeling more positive each morning I wake. I need to go to the doc this morning as 3 of my wounds are weeping but I have the best GP.

I have started the whole liquid mushy faze again, The one great thing is that my surgeon basically said that I know what I can and can't eat to do the best for my band so im on a diet between mushies and liquid. Im not really hungry. I think im a bit sore to be hungry. I'm not to worried I went 6 weeks before the band not eating much..I am just elated I still have my friend!!

I call it Kekona it means second born in Hawaiian and I guess thats how i will feel in a few days!!!

      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!
