I'm not. I still feel bloated, but I also haven't gone número dos. It's been 8 days!!! I'm taking some MOM. I'll probably lose 5 lbs :)

back2barb78 That's one of the questions I was going to ask him if I could take something. When I meant lighter I should said the way my clothes that were too tight on certain areas are loose. But I need to do eliminate soon as well we had our surgery on the same day so it's about time.

You haven't either? I emailed my nutritionist this morning and she said if i needed it i could take the MOM but that I really need to increase my fluids because I told her I'm really not hungry and having a hard time drinking my fluids. She told me try harder! Damn tough love!! I held out all day to see if it would happen and it hasn't so I'm just drinking it now. I figured it would take a while but it's been 8 days!!

I was going to ask tomorrow. But knew since we aren't able to eat much we wouldn't have a lot in us.

How did your MD appointment go?

Wow that is so wonderful! I'm jealous I've lost 5 and had to do 2 doses of MOM before success! After my "success" today, I'll weigh again tomorrow :) Congrats! You get to eat something!

Hi! I'm thinking y'all had your surgery the same day or close to as me. I had surgery Oct 10! When did y'all? I'm new in here and not sure how it all works. Forgive me if I did this wrong!

I eat eggs, tuna, oatmeal, today I had a salad grind up really good only 1/2 cup tolerated well. I still do my shakes and skim milk and plenty of Water. Somebody else recommended hash and to make a crustless quiche which I may do tomorrow. I still look around and explore for new soft foods so I won't get tired eating the same 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.

      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!
