I'm not a teen, I am the 21st. LOL I satrted a 10 day pre op liquid diet on Friday. Day one was ok. Day two was hard, was around a lot of food at a funeral. (But I made it). Today I have a headache. Not sure if related, but I assume it is. Also grumpy today. Tomorrow I have my EDG so I can't have anything until it is done. ( which isn't until 1:30pm!) That is going to be tough.. Good luck to all the October sleevers-hope we all have great success!!!

Surgery went great and I'm a little sore but feeling pretty good- went for a walk with my husband... Feeling very grateful for no complications this time, no need for an open procedure. What's weird is that my roommate just had surgery with the doctor that screwed up my surgery in 2007! Definitely will not mention that... Hoping surgery went well for all of you today!

Had mine yesterday and was in a lot of pain yesterday and had a lot of nausea but as soon as they got me on the nausea medicine my body balanced out and I did much better after about 2 hours.

I have gone for a walk to the bathroom and that's it I'm still hAving a little bit of pain but overall doing well

      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!
