How are you doing? Also an up to date list is located under December Surgery thread. So many more people have been added since that last list above :-) I think it's more than doubled, which is awesome :-)

Way to go, Sammi. Merry Christmas!! Just think in another month how much weight will be gone! I haven't weighed since I left the hospital because of the IV fluids have me feeling very bloated.

Today I can finally take bigger drinks of water! I am hoping I dont stretch anything doing it, but after feeling dehydrated and only being able to take sips all day it is sure nice to take a big drink when I want. If anyone hears anything from their Dr that this is not ok, let me know. I don't see mine again for 2 weeks.

Yes Gen is right your only supposed to eat 1/4 cup per meal which is only 2 ozs but there are alot of people like me who cant even eat that much yet so don't think you HAVE to eat that much listen to your body it will say when it's done

      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!
