I got sleeved yesterday 02/28! Just got home and I am so excited for this journey. Surgeon discovered a hernia on the EGD so that was also repaired yesterday. This has caused more abdominal pain. I also have lots of gas in my chest. I started walking at 3 am and continuously throughout the day. Let's do this!

I had my sleeve 3/2. All went really well. I have not had to take even one pain pill! I hate this liquid diet! I am not particularly hungry, just miserable!
8 more days of this!!!!!! Need a spirit booster!

I had mine on the 20th of Feb I only had to take one gas x I found walking and sipping on Water really helps . I would walk to my mail box about 4 times a day until I finely made to the end of my street which is about 4 houses down walking helps. I haven't had to take any pain meds sense I've been home. I don't like the liquids either since being on liquids since Feb 6 and still on liquids but I have found that sugar free popsicles and yogurt on a stick makes it so much better [emoji3]

      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!
