It has been 3 days since surgery. The only issue I have is gas pains, which is normal. Trying to get all the Fluid in is work. I love sugar free popcycles. Good luck for those getting ready for their surgery.

I got home last night. Was sleeved Wed the 14th. Aside from the pain on my right side, the only difficult part is forcing the Water down. I only got about 8 oz of water in. But I had 3 sugar free Popsicles and 8 oz of chicken broth. The broth made me feel super full though. I'm really looking forward to feeling better soon!!!

I was sleeved on the 14. The first few days were hard to get liquids in, today has been a bit easier.

I was also sleeved on the 14th I'm extremely thirsty so I think last night I drank too much Water leaving me with extreme pains rising in the sleep ... I've had so much heartburn ... At least that's what I think it is ... As soon as I start walking it feels better .... I'm only sleeping 2 to 4 hours max

      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!
