Also, if you haven't made one yet, I highly recommend coming to the monthly support groping meetings. The next one is nov 13 at mvh. 6:30-8:30. You can get first hand answers to any questions you may still have, and, we're a pretty fun group.

It is nice. It's a 2 hr session. 1st hour is a speaker to give general wls advice, then we break up by wls types and basically share what we've done. It's been a great help just knowing that we have others that have been where we are. And, the sleevers are a fun group at our meetings

Sorry artsong, I misread your question. I can't see why not. I think it's mostly people from our surgeons, but, I'm sure we wouldn't kick you out if you showed 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!
