I am 8 weeks from surgery... I have lost just over 30 pounds... from 217 down to 186. I am 41.

I have been spotting for four days now. But I was not supposed to start until October 16th.

would this be due to the weight loss and overall body changes?

Yes! It did not happen to me, but cutting the calories so drasticly will send our bodies into a tailspin and mess those things up- might want to make a quick call to the doc office or nuts office just to confirm but I bet they will just confrim that over the phone without an office visit. Once your calories stable and weight loss stables I would watch it and go see the gyn if it is not normal. I woun't worry.

I was supposed to start on the 30th and only usually spot for 1 day before it starts. I spotted for 4 days and finally started on the 5th extremely heavy when its usually not... Called dr and said the first couple may be messed up.

      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!
