Hi, I am looking for local Charlotte folks that would like to start a support group or would like to get together to walk and talk. I am 11 days post-op as of today, 8/11/12. I am just looking for others like me that are trying to get their health back on track.

I currently go tothe support group at CMC mercy, but with my current fall schedule will no longer be able to do so. I am looking for a weekend supprt group that meets once or twice a month.

I am new to all of this so if you have any suggestions that would be great. I have talked to a few other Chralotte people on here. I guess the best way to start is to find out the area everyone lives in, get names and numbers and find a good place to meet up. I believe we can send private msgs to multiple people to work this out.

BeachGirl, I just got back from my 2 week post-op with my NUT and am down 20 lbs. I am very excited.

Chuckles, I spoke with a lady that can only meet on the weekends also. Let's all talk and figure this thing out..

      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!
