I feel the same way. Barely any pain, just soreness like I did a lot of crunches. My incisions have no pain and if it wasn't for seeing them, I wouldn't know they are there.

Luckily, I watched my swallow test on the screen so I know I was really sleeved and I can feel my restriction.

Today is day 3, I am going to get my nails done, I had to take my gel polish off for surgery, and walk around the mall.

I have a lot of energy but being cold all the time is getting annoying.

Did they tell you you had to remove your gel polish??? I don't like naked nails or chips!!! ????????

They told me no polish at all. I asked about leaving one nail naked and they said no. All nail no polish. My nails are really strong though since I take Vitamins and collagen anyway and have for years. They are like talons, so 2 days with clear polish wasn't an issue. I used Seche Vite top and base coat and I used this stuff called rock hard that I got at Sally's in between. No chips no breaks.

I did get to keep my toenail polish. They just want your nails naked so they can check your oxygen levels

      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!
