Drinking will get a lot better over the next few days and the nausea will start to go away soon. At the one week mark you will start to feel MUCH better. Hang in there. :)

Today makes my one week post op and I feel a little sore but relatively normal. You will see that things get wayyyy better real soon! Just make sure you are sipping. I bought a toddler sippy cup the ones for 12 months and up because it looks more adult like...lol and took the stopper out. It really helps and I don't have any problems keeping the Protein Shakes down or crystal light...just keep trying it will work.

Good luck and you are on the loser side now...LOL!

      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.

      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!
