Got sleeved the 29th and came home yesterday. Hard to get the Protein in, but doc said focus on Water first, so that's what I'm doing.

December 29th sleever here! So far all has been good. Doing my best to work with my body on getting rid of gas. I'm burping a lot which is another good sign. Walking a lot in my apartment since it's too cold to walk outside. I have not been nauseous at all since leaving the hospital. Just having good mental positivity has helped me the last three days.

I get gas immediately,

I'm having a horrible time with things. Trying to figure out this full feeling. But I can't take in anything but maybe two bites of sf Jello and a dip of water. I'm worried I'm gonna get dehydrated. Am I ever gonna be able to put more in?!

Day 5 and still fighting with the horrid gas and Nausea.. I can't drink the liquid pain medicine or the liquid Nausea medicine

I just can't get past the taste it makes me want to hurl. I sent a text yesterday to my Doctors nurse and my doctor called

me a short time later and called me in a prescription for a nausea medicine in a pill form...I am so grateful...I didn't want to bother him on New Years Day! I wish I would have asked him for a different pain medicine but I guess I'll just tough it out and use none. I plan on

trying to drink something I can add my prilosec too and maybe that will help also...This just has been a rough few days....

Has anyone found anything to put their ground-up pills in to get them down? I've tried Applesauce, and also Cream of Wheat. The pills taste awful!

I used Unjury chicken Soup to mix pills in. I prepared it than removed about 1/2 and added pills, because

i knew there was no way I would be able to drink all of it and I didn't want to waste Medicines. Does anyone

know if we are getting enough liquid how long we can go with just a bit of Protein.< /p>

Is anyone planning on returning to work on Monday? My instructions say I could (I'm an Exec Asst so almost no physical activity) but I'm finding that I need 2 naps a day. I'm trying regular Tylenol today cut it in 1/2 to see if it's the extra good stuff in the liquid meds that not only makes me red and itch but makes me loopy and sleepy.

I haven't been able to do things like read or study yet. Still scatter brained.

      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!
