Hello everyone! I am 3 days post op and I am doing great! I am having some irritating things going in though. My pouch feels like it bunches up (balls up) every now and then. Feels like a excruciating hunger pain. Will this ever end? Secondly, the incision where my stomach was removed hurts like hell. If I can get that under control I would b so much better. I want to exercise soooo bad but I know that is impossible so all I do is walk now. My taste buds reject crystal light and lemonade now. Im looking forward to my tolerance levels now. Just wanted to check in. Hope you guys are doing well!

Everyday gets better. The knotting up will stop around day 7. The incision pain gets better everyday. Just rest, rest, rest.

The first 5 days were the worst. I could not tolerate anything but Water. I tried to drink as much water as I could and walk around. It does get better! :)

      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.

      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!
