I named mine Cujo, cuz it talks and grumbles and it's kinda temperamental sometimes too lol :-)

I had to think of something that descibes my stomach to a tee, grumpy pouch. It never seems to be happy and it fills up so quick and then still is unhappy. lol

Tank. As in "made of steel". So far (10 months out) nothing bothers it, which isn't necessarily the best thing.

The radish did you in!! LOL.

I am one month out from my surgery and nothing has bothered me. I am on soft foods at this point. I tried an experiment with a couple of fried shrimp and french fries..... didn't bother me, but it just didn't taste good. Too fatty I suppose. I'll have to find another favorite food. Right now it is refried Beans with melted cheese.

i always refer to it as "my tiny baby tummy". but in a cute voice and i think strangers sometimes look at me funny when i pick something up in the store and exclaim things to my husband like "omg tiny baby cheese for tiny baby tummy!" he just rolls his eyes. B)

      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!
