I was sleeved yesterday morning 04/23/2012 and I haven't even left the hospital yet but I'm already thrilled the I had this done. I was so nervous about the actual surgery that I never really let myself get too excited about the life changing possibilities it would have for me until now. It just hit me starting yesterday when I got to my hospital room that now I'm on the other side and will actually be one of those of you on the loser's bench!

congratulations! Had my surgery five days ago and so far, everything is great and i know I'm not supposed to weigh myself everyday, but I can't help it. And I am losing weight every day. I know that will stop at some point, but right now it is very exciting.

      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!
