I'm just so down about having this surgery and it has been a battle since I've gotten it. They had to go back in because of scar tissue build up that kept me from keeping even Water down. Now they want me to be on puree foods and I'm finding it hard to get in what they ask me too. I think I made a huge mistake and I'm very unhappy and tired of throwing up!

I can really appreciate how you feel. After my RNY I threw up for 3 months each time I ate something. It turns out the pouch was very tight so he went in and loosened it, and Wa-La, the barfing stopped. Don't feel bad or have regrets, it does get better, It really does. Keeping good thoughts for you!!

I'm 14 months out and it's been a huge struggle, 3 restrictions with dilatation. It gets better. I'm finally stronger and eating little more. I was under weight for couple months but I gain 5 lbs that puts me on a normal weight. Some days it's hard but you can do it. Just keep focusing on your health.

      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!
