Should I be worried?



Recommended Posts

Ok so I am 14 days post op and on mushies. I haven't really been able to stomach much including my Protein Shakes. Tonight my husband got me fat free frozen yougurt. I didn't think I would be able to eat much. I probably ate the size of a large deck of cards. Well I got the dreaded slimed n threw some of it up. I am worried I ate too much and too fast. Could I cause a leak from this? I mean when you eat it it is pretty much a soft solid/liquid so I don't think it would stretch my sleeve that much, right? I was sooo stupid, I have been starving n it just felt and tasted so good going down. My stomach feels full but not stuffed or hurting, do u think I'm ok??

Please let me know, thanks!

You are fine. Frozen yogurt turns to liquid in the stomach and can't really exert much pressure on the staple line. Vomiting, however, should be avoided. In the future, eat slower and take smaller bites ESPECIALLY when it's something that tastes good. I can really scarf a favorite food down and then pay for it afterward--things I don't really care about eating I tend to eat slower.

It might have been fat-free, but was it also sugar-free? Sometimes high-sugar foods cause that problem for me... I hope you're feeling better 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.

      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!
