Yeh. I have really been watching what I put in my mouth and walking on my treadmill. I lost my weight quick but I am maintaining my current weight as of now...lol I go back to the doc in feb and see if I need a fill. But my goal is to lose 20 more lbs before my 20th birthday...which is Jan 31. I was be so ecstatic if I make it.

I'm sure you'll be able to pull it off Ash. I really want to get a treadmill but we don't have the money or space... so I've just been walking outside. I feel like I'd get more done on the treadmill because it is very cold outside!

It took me about 3-5 days to get insurance to approve & then they gave me like two weeks to get all my other shit in order. I went in for my consult December 15 & had the surgery on December 26th.

      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!
