I'm just making it home from the hospital. Everything has been ok so far. Oh except for that sneeze I thought was going to kill me. I'm trying to get my Fluid in. I've already have 32 oz today. I'm going to try to drink this Protein Water so I can get a 2 for 1

Home today. Surgery was yesterday. I’m wondering when everyone starts their Vitamins? My doc said within the first two weeks but I’d like a more specific time frame than that.
I am on day 8 and started my chewy Vitamins today

My plan resumes Vitamins on Day 15, when puree' phase starts.

My doctor told me I can start taking my Vitamins after my post op visit in one week. Right now he only wants me to take omeprazole and promethazine for heartburn and nausea

My doc said to start taking Vitamins the next day I got home from surgery. So I had surgery on Tuesday, Oct 23rd and got home late Friday. I started taking vitamins on Sunday, the 28th. I am taking Calcium + D3, B-12, B-Complex, Multivitamins, Biotin, and L-Lysine.

I had my surgery on October 29, 2018!

Me too. I was sleeved and had my gall bladder removed at the same time.

Surgery date 10/8 , down 16lbs. I hit the dreaded 3 week stall this week but the scale finally moved today. I have a total food aversion to chicken. I'm cleared to eat it but I feel horrible after doing so... nauseous, gassy and in pain. Even when its soaked in gravy.

I was trick or treating last night with my kids and drinking Water while walking. Strangely enough, water went down super easy while walking. I'm sure it was because I was mobile, but I might try to take a bottle of water on a walk now and kill 2 bbn birds with 1 stone.

      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!
