I had RNY done by Laura July on April 4th. She is absolutely amazing and went above and beyond for me. Good luck with your surgery! You'll be in great hands.




How are you feeling now and how was your pain level.

I'm feeling fantastic! The first couple days my body was really achy (my neck, back & legs) and my stomach hurt a little bit. By day 4 post op I was out shopping and doing yard work. I only had to take my pain meds 4 times at half the dose prescribed. And now (12 days post op) I feel like a million bucks!

      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'. ???

      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!
