I'm doing good! Getting hungry but today I finally got 35 grams of Protein soooo happy! I'm going to eat some Jello and more protein, hoping this is quick. Saturday I start my mushy foods finally!

No longer using pain meds only at night to sleep.< /p>

I do feel like band is up in my chest so when I feel tight I inhale and exhale. It helps

It actually went better than I thought it would go. Just have extreme cotton mouth and sore throat when the pain mess wear off. Other than that I'm fighting the gas, I'm walkin 10-15 min every few hours then whenever I get up I walk around the house about 5 min. It's working!

      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!
