early on its hard to know if you are really hungry. a lot of us battle " head hunger" early on . this will go away soon. im a over a year post op and i have to remind myself to eat. i really dont get " hungry" like i used to.

It will be interesting tmrw...will be incorporating full liquids.

Everyone is so different with this surgery. But to this day , which is 15 months after surgery I have yet to feel hungry. I have to remember its time to eat. I know there is a nerve in your stomach and I was told mine was removed. But with time it could grow back. So not sure if your surgeon removes this or not. Good luck and just take your time while eating the soft foods when you can. And it's all about small amounts with your new life. And it will be worth it!

      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!
