I can eat bucket fulls if I let myself! popcorn is one of the things I actually wanted the band to help with - but so far it's up to me to control.

I, unfortunately, can eat way too much popcorn if I let myself!

Thank you for the replies. I love popcorn! I hope I cant eat buckets full though, but I couldn't imagine not ever eating it.

I eat popcorn.... no problems here. i keep it to only when i go to movies. Same thing with candy. I can make one bag of m&m's last a few days. I buy the bite size candies and i keep them in my co workers desk so i only eat one every few days.

Biggest problem for me is still Ice cream.... i love ice cream.... it does not matter what flavor... i will eat them all. So my solution is.... i buy the blue bell party cups and when i just HAVE to HAVE it.... i eat one cup. Then all is right in my life again....lol

Tracy... every one is different. Every LB patient goes thru this journey on a different path. Just because i can eat or can't eat something does not mean it will be the same for you. For me it was trial and error... i would try and if it error ed... it would come back up... Then i learned my lesson and said... well guess i can't eat instant grits anymore... or bread, rice, pizza, etc....

Good luck with your journey and walk your path....

      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!
