I'm not going to lie the first night home was a little rough but luckily my husband and daughter have turned into Little Nurses so they helped me out a great deal. I've decided it's much easier to stay in my recliner than in the bed. the family had to go back to school and work today but they set Everything up around my chair for me. I'm starting to feel better now.

@@BellaLuce4 Thank you. I'm surprised how much I can actually get down. I had 20oz of coconut Water, 4oz Of plain water and 4oz of Isopure. Better than I thought it would be. I also had 1 tablespoon of Fage 2% plain yogurt mixed with another tablespoon of chobani banana Greek yogurt. It was delicious. I just ate really slow and I was able to get it all in. I'm not pushing it though. I'm just sipping water for the rest of the night!

Be careful with the coconut Water once you are healed and eating cause it has a high sugar content. For now it's prob great for your body. Sounds like you are doing really good!!! So happy for you????

@@BellaLuce4 Oh I probably won't drink it to much after just for that reason I just use it now because I'm not even getting in 400 Calories with it. I don't care too much for sugar free products so I'm trying to stay as natural as I can. This is just for now. I like Water too this is just a nice change from plain water I don't "love" my Isopure but I make myself drink a few oz just for the Protein benefits. I will be glad when some time down the road I can eat My protein instead! I'm looking forward to that!

      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!
