Im glad to say its been 6 months since surgery and time flew! I was 285 at highest and lost 20 pre op. Since surgery I've lost another 45 making it a 65 lb total loss and I feel great. It was a bumpy road at first cause I got sick with a stomach virus and had to go back to the hospital 2x in the first week but as soon as I got over that its been pretty easy. I can eat anything now in sm quantities , except I notice ice cream makes me sick, and I go to curves 3-4x a week. It's awesome to be able to enjoy shopping again and I love that I can get rid of my "fat" clothes. I'm do grateful for wonderful friends and family support and this forum has been so helpful!!

      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!
