It hasn't been too long for me yet.. I have say that the walking helps. I walk every hour then try to stay standing then rest.. Still need the pain meds though .. Can't wait til I don't! The sipping bothers me.. One day at a time

My surgery was at 7:30 this morning. I was sooooo exhausted that I have slept all day! I did get up and walk which was not to do at all. There is pain but it has been controlled with the drip and a of yet have not felt really sick....looking forward to all the positive changes that will transpire for me due to this surgery and my determination. For everyone who is going through surgery in the coming weeks and months....keep your eyes on the prize and keep moving forward!!!!!

      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!
