I was sleeved yesterday :). Yesterday was rough between coming out of anesthesia, nausea and pain. I'm doing much better today! Been up walking and finally keeping fluids down! Even tiny sips are tough, but I'm just taking it really slow to make sure they stay down and I get hydrated! It feels so good to get up and walk. The first time out of bed was tough, but after that it gets way easier!! My surgeon stopped by this morning and said I may be able to go home this afternoon. He and the nurses say I'm doing really well :). Well, I'm so happy to have this done and be on the road to recovery!!! I hope you're all doing well!! I'll update again later!

Awsome! So happy for you! The next 3 or 4 days will be rough due to gas and bloating -- walk walk walk, that's the BEST advise I can give you!! By day 4 you feel much better, by day 7 you feel amazing, 30 days out, you'll be a lot lighter and feeling great!! Hang in there, it gets amazingly better!! Good Luck! Remember.... walk walk walk!

Glad you are doing so well. Just remember, every day it will get a little easier. I was feeling like warmed over death for about 8 days, but was fine by day 10. Keep walking and drinking.

      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!
