They took all the Fluid out bc they did the Barium test and it showed that the upper part of my stomache was swollen...something like that lol...so they said it needed time to heal..thats why they took everything out..I sware I feel like a different person now, like the old me that could eat a horse lol...but Im gonna stick it out for the next 2 weeks and Im gonna be extremly strick on what I will put into my mouth...Im def going to lose those 13 pounds b4 I go back to the doctor..thats the only way I'll feel like Im back on track...6 pounds this week and 7 pounds next week...protein & gym here I come lol

If I can get back on track, then you can too! I'm really glad that you're starting now! Better to start at 13 pounds, than 50 pounds (like I did). Let us know how its going!

So sorry to hear you were so swollen. Sounds painful too. But I have to say, you have THE BEST attitude! I know you will lose the weight before your next fill.

All the best to you.

Yes! Good for you!!! The first time going back to the gym is the hardest. But it gets easier once it becomes part of your routine! I'm so happy for you! You're gonna do great! :(

      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!
