How did the 5-19 club do? I am really still amazed at how well mine went. The best news is I went home off all diabetes meds and I was doing 4 shots a day. I pray that sticks that was one of the primary reasons I did this because of my health problems.

Well 7 days out.... Overall good.... But for some reason the surgery has brought my anxiety disease to the forefront.... I'm battling like crazy.... One weird feeling sends me into panic..... I sure hope this passes!

Hey Valentine.... I am glad your surgery went well. Sorry about the nerves. Try to stay calm and eat mild, non rich liquid. I had a really sweet chocolate concoction that made me sick for the first time so I was a little panicky. After the sickness passes I was back to myself but it would have been worse with real anxiety.

      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!
