8 days post-op and down 10 lbs. I am starting to struggle with the liquids but I am getting there. Wish I could relax and stop worrying about when I lose 75 lbs! Taking it a day @ a time. Jogged for the first time yesterday, did it again today. I NEVER thought I'd say that!

Jogged!?! I'm impressed. I doubt I will be doing that any time soon, ok, maybe never. How in the world did you mange to be able to jog this soon out of surgery?

Lol! Well it was more like a walk/jog but it was more than I have ever done before! I walk about 2 minutes, then jog for two, then keep switching. I am still getting used to exercising, but I am down 31 lbs total and feel great!

      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!
