Well its been four weeks had my second post op appointment and am down 30lbs pretty excited. My blood pressure is down. I havnt been able to walk very much due to a herniated disk that decided to rupture while i was in the hospital. I am scheduled for back surgery on the 9th this month, so crosing my fingers that with lossing the weight and getting my back fixed i can really get out and move and heal fast.

Hi everyone. Hope all are doing well. My vacation ends tomorrow, so back to OH we go. This week has been difficult trying to find things I want to eat. We ate out a lot which seems like such a waste. I can't do leftovers now so it is even worse. I had my first dumping incident yesterday, with frozen greek yogurt. Plus yesterday I ate too fast and threw up. Not a good day... But most of my time has been ok. Doing well with liquids, Protein not so much. I have never liked meat and post surgery hasn't changed. It is a struggle to find something I can chew that doesn't make me sick. Getting there. Can't wait to see the scale. Haven't weighed in since last Wednesday....hoping the scale is good to me! Have a great night everyone!

I guess I jus aint use to losing n I want more. I hav hit 2 different stalls. It was disappointing even tho I knew it would pass. I no there will b more before its over. U are doing good also. I think I lost the most of mine w while i'm the hospital for a week, then very sick wen I came home, abs i've been.back in the hospital again. But the rest of the time its been slow. I've started Water aerobics this week. So jus keep ur chin up. :)

I had my surgery on May 28. Today I hit 83 pounds gone. I am 18 pounds away from onderland. I haven't been at this weight since I was a sophomore in high school. Still only getting about 600 calories/day. And maybe 40g of Protein. But I am working with my nutritionist to get those numbers up. I feel amazing and going shopping for the 3rd set of new clothes! Amazing! So glad to see everyone's progress. I am so thankful I made this decision. I love the person I am becoming.

      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!
