I need to take my antacid everyday too! I'm going to start tomorrow .

Yes! Make sure you take it everyday. You could develop and ulcer. I'm supposed to take it twice a day and it tastes terrible. So bad my body involuntary shutters after taking it.

I hope you feel better soon. Congrats on the loss. Why do you have to open your capsule instead of just swallowing the whole capsule?

Ty n Good question. They just told me that's Wat I am suppose to do. I guess because it takes a while for capsule to dissolve n I might digest it before it has time to disolve.

I have been doing great.. I went from 317 to 238.. so I guess I would say that I'm down 79 pounds.. exercise is coming along. We just got an 8 month old puppy so she helps with that walking for sure.. need to start toning.. clothes are super big on me, and my shirts are just hanging off of me.. I feel great though.. Every morning I make sure I get down a 20 oz bottle of Water before Breakfast, then do the same right before lunch and dinner, that way I know I have all my fluids in... I always eat my protein first so that if I get full I at least know my protein is in... my wife went from 247 to 185.. She's finally in wonderland.. She looks great!! The only foods we can not tolerate is tuna and milk so far... I sure do miss my milk and cereal... no problems getting our Vitamins in... for our Calcium we found the chewables were much better. I'm trying to add before and after pic but it's not letting me... Oh btw I am so confused with this new sight. I miss the old one

      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!
