Hello, Checking in to see how the Oct 6th banders are doing? I did well and just got home last night. I stayed overnight as all of our WLS patients do. I am sore as crazy, but it's getting better each day. I can't wait for all this pain to go away. I am not hungry, but have had a few sips of chicken broth, Protein Drink and a popsicle. I had to drink 3 medium sized cups of Water and applejuice before I left hospital!!! Wow. I was a little depressed day of surgery, but it was all the meds I was on...Now, I'm in great mood, just taking it easy and trying to walk around and take breathing exercises in that thing. LOL It was a great experience, but the nurses call was really slow or a no show..I wasn't too happy yesterday with the hospital's room service with some. Others were great...Nice hosptial room of my own!!!!

I would say, just listen to what you have to do is the most important thing one day at a time..I'm happy to get it done.

Congrats to all oct. banders past few days and good luck to rest of this week. I will do my best to hang around here for yrs to come as part of my support grp..It was awesome to hear from last year's October banders. I will do same next year as part of my 1 yr celebration- cheer on.

      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!
