I'm sure your wife will do fine!

How does it feel to be struggling to NOT lose more weight? I honestly can't imagine. I can only remember once in my life when I was losing weight without really trying...and that was while having the flu, an appendectomy, and lung abscess all at the same time.

I do realize it can be a serious thing but gosh...it seems like it'd be so easy (for me) to simply switch to some higher calorie foods vs always thinking about bulk vs calories.

Its hard because I'm trying not to add the stuff that got me so overweight in the first place. I still don't do rice, Pasta, breads. No sweets. I'll figure it out. It is very weird going to a dr or nut and they tell you to gain some weight

      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!
