Thank you! I was in and out pretty quickly. And doing really well today! My pain is managed well just had some nauseous and a little dry heaving. Tomorrow they check the staple line and I'll be allowed to start liquids.< br>

Completely understandable! But honestly this process has been amazing for me. It's rough for a short time but so far very much life changing :-)

I had to get one several years ago and thankfully I don’t have to get another one. I can’t wait until all the process is over as well. I was never much of a cook and sometimes I find myself getting discouraged trying to find healthy decent things to make. Wish you the best for your sleep study.

Thank you, I'm not much of a cook either, so making healthy food decisions is going to be a challenge for me as well...LOL.

      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!
