early on just be sure to get your liquids in walk all you can stand. Follow your Dr diet they are all very similar! Don't flip out at stalls (that is one I have not mastered) lol. I have no issues with food now but early I had to be really careful what I ate, some things made me sick and those are different for each of us. Relax and enjoy it is a heck of a ride! Start saving for new cloths now!

My stats are Highest weight 344, day of surgery 332, 3 months 275, 6 months 232, today 223.2

My BMI was so high 49 that the first 100 came off quickly. I use my fitness pal and track everything! Try new healthy foods my tastes have changed.

      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!
