Yes, I got home around 2pm today. Happy to he home but unhappy that I don't have a lounge chair to sleep in. Getting in and out of my bed is not fun.

Hi! I had my surgery on the same day you did at the same time. I arrived home yesterday around 8 PM. Feels great to be home. Experiencing gnawing hunger pains. Trying to sip Protein as Water seems to make it worse. Are you experiencing the same?

Having weird gurgling and pain in my stomach but they don't seem like hunger pains to me. I havent had any interest in food since the surgery. I've been tolerating Water and Protein Shakes though. Hope you also have a speedy recovery!

Oh I haven’t tried Protein Shakes yet. I’m doing Isopure Protein Drink. Doctor said I can only have Clear Liquids. Will try Protein shakes next week. Trying to find high protein shakes. I woke up several times with that weird feeling in my stomach/chest last night and had to take a few sips of the protein drink. Seemed to help. I hope you have a speedy recovery as well.

Yeah, I left the hospital on a "full liquid diet". I tried some broth and yogurt today and wasn't feeling either of them.

How are the Isopure drinks going down. That is what I will be drinking some to my surgery date Nov 27th

Sent from my SM-G955U using BariatricPal mobile app

Have not tried any of the Isopure drinks. I've been doing the Premier Protein flavored water and this "peanut butter cookie" Protein mix that I've been mixing with almond milk

      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!

        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.

      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!
