How Does It Feel To Be "stuck"!?



Recommended Posts

Sounds like your too tight. Contact your doctor immediately, but don't eat anything for 6 hours

I'm stuck at the moment, too... Swallowed too quick and didn't chew enough... Right now I'm burping a lot. In a little while, if this doesn't go down on its own I'll make some hot tea to try and expand the band...

Was this after you ate (within 1-2 hours)? If so, take a walk to help the food go down. Next time, cut you food up into tiny bits and eat slowly.

If it's not food related, go see the doc.

You will learn to eat slower, chew more and take smaller bites.

I think i just ate too fast my stomach ended up like gurgling at the band area then started to feel better. I know i ate too fast i was sooo hungry and it was getting late. I wont do that again!

"I wont do that again!"

Wanna bet? :lol:

For me, 63 years of programming has been very hard to change. I've had the same thought 30-40 times now.

      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!
