Too tight and miserable...

Mimi - same here - they took .3 out of the 5.9 and now I can't stop eating! But yea better than barfing or choking on my own saliva at night - jeez that was messed up!

Seems that way! I go back on Jan 5 so just after the holidays my goal is to not gain back more than 2 lbs of the 10 I lost in the two weeks of the overfill. To be honest I would do it again if I had to get a boost on the weight loss. I dont' care if I am on liquids for a bit (problem is you lose muscle too). Also long as I'm not waiting up choking but that seemed better congtrolled by not eating or drinking anything 2-3 hours before bed (which i find hard to do).

When do you go back?

I had my first fill on 12/8-- since then anything I eat , comes right back up.. I just tried to eat ONE steamed sea scallop and am in pain (AGAIN).. Is this normal for almost 2 weeks post fill??? My doctor is in Texas ( 7 hours from here)

cruzlady - what was happening to me in the beginning was this was occurring from eating too fast. When you are eating take 30 seconds to chew and then when you swallow wait another 30 seconds before taking the next bite. Try that. I use either the stop watch on my iphone or one online (it keeps me honest) and today when i didn't already things were coming up).

      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!
