Glad to know that I'm not alone on the chew & spit stuff. I was banded a week ago and just craved flavor. I've only don't this twice but with a few doritos. I just suck all the flavor and spit. Over 4th of July I licked the season off a grilled brat. I'm not hungry just really bored of clear liquid diet. t h

lol! I can so see me doing this when I finally start the process before/after banding liquid phases. I understand where some are saying it can be an unhealthy eating habit, however......if I'm end up being one who won't be able to down bread, there may be SOME times that I just want that taste of my mama's yeast rolls in my mouth and I may just have to chew a bite or two. No harm done. :D

It is so much about flavor for me as well! That is why on my pre-op diet of liquids when I had broth I would add different seasonings to it. Now that I'm on liquids when I blend or have creamy Soups if they don't have enough flavor I add it in! I can see how making this a habit would suck, but for now licking or chewing and spitting might just help sometimes the insanity! ;)

I'm with you! No way could I put food in my mouth and not enjoy the full experience.

No way I could that! Once its in my mouth, I'm swallowing that sucker!

      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.

        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!
