Ever had a stare with a Golden Oreo?



Recommended Posts

Well I did tonight. I am 13 days post op and am heading into hell. I wanted anything to eat. chips? A Diet Coke (it's my crack) maybe? And then I stood in my pantry and spied the Golden Oreo package. Those delicious little, calorie packed Cookies were once a great night time friend. I stared at those Cookies and then grabbed a can of low sodium green Beans.

It was difficult, to walk away and the I remembered I just went through hell with surgery and don't want to screw this up! Also, I'm down 18 pounds! 18. That is much better then a cookie.

Nice job of taking care of yourself by not giving in to a short-term treat.

Step 1: Take Orea out of box' date=' Step 2: Take meat cleaver out of drawer, Step 3: Pound said orea w/ meat cleaver and scream "damn you orea, damn you" repeatedly :)[/quote']

Great work, but you need to get rid of them, I understand they are for kids, spouse, ect.. I buy my kids treats i don't like and healthier things too so I am not tempted. Good luck you are doing great!

      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.

      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!
