I'm about three weeks post op and cannot get warm!!! I am absolutely freezing all the time. Is this due to the very reduced calorie intake that I am having?? Any help would be really helpful. Thank you. ????

Being cold is something I read that is very common post op. I don't know if it is because we are losing all of our insulation or what. The best thing I have found so far are fleece leggings from Walmart. They are under $10 a pair and fit under all of my pants. They definitely make a huge difference.

Fat is an excellent insulator. When I lost the weight, I became more sensitive with the cold. When I am outdoors working in the snow, I discovered hand warmers. They are marvelous and now an essential element to my wellbeing.

I'm 8 weeks out and still freezing... I have grown used to thick socks, long sleeved shirts and extra blankets.

I can't believe how cold I am now. I used to be the type of person who NEVER wore long sleeves in winter, and even liked to sleep with the window cracked open in freezing weather. Now, I don't think I've been warm at all unless I'm in the shower almost scalding myself.

      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!
