Was giving a second chance



Recommended Posts

Today I was giving a second chance, when I went to get a hiatal hernia fixed since it never was at time of my sleeve surgery like must of people do..
Gained almos 60 lbs back in just 6 months went to my new weight loss doctor and had an endoscopy to check my sleeve and he found the hernia and asked me why I never had it fixed.. well long story short I had the surgery done today and he fixed the hernia and also readjusted my sleeve that had stretched a bit! I say a second chance since I’m pretty much starting like my first surgery post-op. I haven’t been here in a while and shamed on me this place has helped me so much. Today I share my story all over again and hope to help others with it! So here we go again!

(Sorry for typos still loopy here)

      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!
