I've lost 5.5 lb since surgery.(14.5 lb on the 2 week liquid diet) As long as the scale keeps going down, not up, I'll be happy!

Ok ladies and gents .. Issue here.... Im having some tachycardia (fast racing heart beats) I'm not sure if it's anxiety or some real heart racing .. I called the doctor and he says if it continues to come into the ER.. Is this normal???

Surgery tomorrow, I haven't done liquid diet at all.

Well hello fellow sleevers. Hope you all are blessed and well. My current status is that I am doing better each day, but I need to get back to work Monday. My biggest issue is this dent in my side. I feel that if it were not for that I would be so much better. Doc says it will expand or pop in about 2 weeks. Said it will feel like someone stuck a knife in me, that's scary. Still walking bent over, still having hard time getting up from sitting or laying down. Can anyone give me more insight to the "POP" and tell me how your doing so I can make sure I'm at the right stage for this heeling process.

@@Mrs. Vee I find that if I hold in my stomach, it feels better. Yesterday I was wearing compression yoga pants and could barely feel a thing.

Ok. Strange request. But for those that are vomiting: what does it look like? Mine is sort of dark with flecks. I think it's old blood.

Ok, I will try that. I have big boobs and tried to put a bra on last night, it helped but then I started feeling constricted and had to take it off.

      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!
