Eating Concerns



Recommended Posts

I am 2 weeks and 4 days out and I am on regular foods now. Every time I eat now though I think that I am overeating, actually I am scared shitless that I am. What food I do get I get very small ammounts, 1 cheese stick, 1 pudding cup or if it is a homemade meal it is 1 tablespoon and I never finish what I get, but the pudding or cheese stick. (none of that is at the same time mind you). Has anyone else gone through this? Is this somewhat expected?

My doc said no more than 2 oz at a meal this early out. I measure it out, and if I finish it, fine. If not, fine. This way I am sure I am not overeating. I am still having Protein Shakes because I can't get in all the Protein from regular food. If you are drinking enough, getting your protein in, and the most food you eat is a pudding cup I am sure you're okay and not overeating.

You will find you can eat a lot more soft (slider) food than you can dense food (chicken breast). You are NOT over eating.

Measure out your calories and it will reassure you. You can use fatsecret.com. they have every food and portion known to man on there.

You are aiming for 6 to 800 calories a day.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      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.
