Hello all my name is Jennifer I'm from connecticut I was sleeved on December 17,2014 one week before Xmas and I'll never do it again before a major holiday start of process was November 2013 I weighed 459 started nutrition classes Feb of 2014 and had surgery that Dec it's been real hard to say the least today I weigh 320 I've dropped 2 pant sizes 1 shoe size and 4 shirt sizes my Boobs were a 54 Dd DOWN to a 48D the hardest part of surgery afterwards was all the gas floating around that hurt bad so it forced me to walk so I'd burp or pass gas to get it out. .. I spent 3dys in hospital it was filled with warm welcoming nurses kind supportive drs and staff that came in 3 to 4 times a day and motivated me to get up and do some laps around the hall. .. honestly after surgery I wasn't even hungry at ALL they gave me Water and glucerna JUST for hospital stay not for home and no lie it was 2 Oz at a time I started off with a medicine measures full I'd have to get it down in an hr ... I'll write more tomorrow I'm Fallin asleep. ..

      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!
