I just got my approval for March 10th!!! I started this whole process in July and I'm so glad that I am just a few weeks away from surgery. I'm very ready to get my new life started :)

My surgery was March 11th too! I go to see my doctor today! :) wish me luck. I am just about 30 lbs down so far. Has everyone moved on to pureed foods? If so, how is that going?

I'm a March 11 also! I've been approved to move on to pureed foods as of last Tuesday but I've found other than the random few bites of applesauce or yogurt I'm not in a hurry to eat 'real' food again because I no longer like the full feeling in my stomach after a month of liquids. Anyone else experiencing this?

I'm down 46 lbs so far, have energy and starting exercise up again tomorrow so I know I'll need to eat more pureed to keep my energy up.

<p>i was march 10th too. how's everybody feeling?</p>

I was sleeved march 11th and have lost 32 lbs, however the past 8 days I have not lost anything and actually gained 5oz. Has anyone else experienced this at 8 weeks? I went to the nutritionist at 6 weeks and she reviewed my myfitnesspal food habits and said I was right on track, so I'm confused why I started stalling! It's so disheartening ! Any help?

      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!
