Hello!!! I am 4 weeks out today. Things have been pretty good so far. Bending to pick things up sometimes is a challenge still. Last night, I started up Water aerobics it was tough, but it was good to start something. food has gone good for the most part. I just need to slow down and be mindful. How's your journey going????

Currently 8 weeks. Starting to exercise next week. Was lacking a little in the Water department but have been picking up this week. I can tolerate mostly anything I eat, I have tried carbs (hospital food unfortunately), and some were okay if small amount, like 2 fries, 2 potato wedges, half a bun but if breaded chicken, could only have a little, felt thick saliva, I guess foamies not sure.

ALGUIEN VOMITA DESPUES DE COMER, ME AH PASADO MUY SEGUIDO, TENGO 5 SEMANAS DE MANGA GASTRICA

Yo personalmente no, pero si he visto que vomitan cuando comen muy rapido, no mastican bien la comida o comen algo que el estomago aun no puede digerir.

I got the Protein Quest chips, they taste like a stale dorito, not bad for when you crave something crunchy and a bag haa 18g of protein. I usually just have half a bag and save the rest for another day.

      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!
