I hope some of you are able to appreciate the humor in this. For others I know the struggle is no laughing matter but i must digress.

I can't comprehend it all, not first time I have heard of Joey Chestnut, may he never have Bariatric Surgery, it would rupture all surgical work and it would be a one-way ticket to DEATH CITY!

Our bodies are capable of amazing things on both extremes. I had my first burger yesterday. As expected I managed to get to half and that was it. Unfortunately it took 2 hours to digest but I think that was from the bun more than the ground beef. Im never going to eat the cleanest but the restriction amazes me every single day. Normally i would be able to eat 2 burgers and various other Snacks and still be hungry. To be able to enjoy a holiday but consuming 80% fewer calories is so nice.

      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!
