Hey March 1-6 surgery friends! Mine was 2/28. I have my 1 week follow up tomorrow. How are you all feeling?!

I'm pretty sore... 6 days out and haven't really lost any weight. Not sure why, but I'm following the directions to a T! I feel hungry most of the day and not sure why... I am getting 80+ grams of Protein a day and drinking at least 4 ounces per hour sometimes up to 6... and still hungry. I have one incision that is super soar when I sit down or stand or bend over, but hoping that will subside soon. And I do miss my Diet Dr. Pepper!!! How are you feeling?

I had surgery this morning. It went great. The gas pain is the worst. My biggest problem is that I’m coughing up some blood. The nurses think it’s from the intubation. Maybe something was knicked in the back of my throat. I have some small clots and when I cough one up it gags me. Praying it heals quick.

Surgery went well. I have very little pain. No nausea. I had a problem coming out of anesthesia but I was told I might have a autoimmune disorder I have to go for testing 3/25 with my dr. But as for the surgery everything went great and I feel great. Went shopping today for a birthday party I have this weekend.

That’s great that you are getting out an about already! From what I’ve read walking is the key. Well done!

I weighed in at 247 this morning! 🙌🏼🙌🏼 I cannot believe I was 270 just two weeks ago at my pre op appt! Surgery weight (3/7) was 258.8. I know I won’t lose this much this fast all the time, but I will take it when I can get it! 🙏🏼 How are my other early March sleevers doing?

I weighed in at 278 at my preop about 3 weeks ago. My scale had me at 256 (surgery had me at 260) 3/12. My scale has me at 253 today. I’m waiting impatiently for 249. I start full liquids tomorrow. Can start getting in some Protein and off just Powerade and Gatorade.

That’s great! You will hit 249 before you know it (and then wave goodbye as you leave it in the dust!).

      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!
