August 4th was my surgery so 2 weeks out and I am done 15 pounds already. The hardest part for me so far was making sure I get my liquids in per day . After seeing the PA she made some suggestions and I am going to change my timing on my intact of food. Starting to miss work but now that I am feeling a little more productive maybe I can start getting a few more things done around the house without exceeding my weight restrictions.

Sounds like you're doing well, all things considered. It's always tough in the beginning but it does get easier. Take care! :)

I had my blood pressure taken today and now they want me to watch it. It was 98 over 56 today. They cut my medicine in half of one med and eliminated 2 other media. If my blood pressure stays that low they will take me off my last prescription. Yeah for me. Maybe by the time I am down half my goal weight they will let me get rid of my sleep apnea machine.

I'm 2 weeks post op also. 20 lbs down, off of all meds for blood pressure, diabetes, and cholesterol. I hope to get off of the CPAP machine by October. I'm excited and I'm glad that we're all doing well, despite small challenges!

Let's do this!!!

      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!
