My first month or so after surgery, my sleep was off. I would wake up more often thru the night. I am 3 months out and sleep pretty well now. I have "upped" (is that a word lol) my workouts now, so I do sleep alot better. I think it just takes your body/brain a while to adjust to everything.

Yes, I have also noticed a change. I have alot more energy and feel more awake..also, since i have lost weight, my cpap pressure is waking me up at night. I'll go back for a repeat study in 6 months or 50# whichever comes first.

YES!! Tomorrow is 2 weeks post-op. I wake up through the night like 5x which I've never done and I can't sem to sleep past 9:30am. I'm usually a big napper, and I can't do that either. Why do you guys think there's such a huge change in sleep after rny? More energy b/c of the weight loss??

I didn't sleep well before surgery, always needed to take something to fall asleep. Still do, but now can only sleep about four five hours at most. AND DREAM, the most real dreams you can imagine. Last night I "dreamed" i ate scrambled eggs. Well it was so real I was looking for evidence in the kitchen this morning. I haven't tried eggs since surgery and woke up thinking I had really accomplished something. NAH it was a dream. So I am still scared to try eggs. THE mind is a weird thing.

      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.

        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!
