I f you mix and blend your mushies well enough to go through a straw and still have problems, if you've had a fill, maybe you need

a little taken out. You really haven't given enough information about your problem for anyone to give you any meaningful advice.

I hope you can get help for this.

I'm 10 months out and I have never vomited. My band is basically empty though. If you vomit eating mushies then there is a problem, usually only if they filled your band intra op

Sheriah, I think you may be worrying unnecessarily. Just start slow with a few small bites from a baby spoon. You should be fine. We all have to go through this stage and do it. You can too. Just take your time and small small bites. You will probably be full on that and then remember to STOP as soon as you are satisfied in your stomach, not your head.

That's why I'm thinking somethings wrong because I'm full after four bites. This strange since I'm just getting off liquids and was starving.

Nope, nothing is wrong. You are still swollen inside and it doesn't take but a few bites to fill you up at this stage. Enjoy the weightloss and feeling full with just a few bites of food. In a couple of weeks you will be able to eat more. But be sure and try to get in your Protein still. shakes are still the best way at this stage.

Don't feel bad I was scared to eat when I first started mushies. Make sure you chew until it's like liquid and you will be ok. I've had a couple close calls but I've never vomited. So far so good!!!

      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!
