Dont Regret This But This Is So Hard



Recommended Posts

Hi I have just turned 21 and had my surgery last august so about 6 months out now. I went through a stage where everything was fine (between 4-5 months) And now even simple things like steamed fish and fresh meat i cant even keep down or gives me nausea. I have lost 35 kgs to date and saw my surgeon a week ago and he said i have not lost enough. im 165cm and now 75kgs. To make things worse i have been having anaphylaxis reactions the past few months so are unable to take multi vitimins until i see a specilist. (luckly this isnt affecting my bloods to much yet) Sorry to rant on just my family is sick of hearing about it and my friends wont take a bar of it. They seem to think i shouldn't complain because of the weight i have lost but there is such a down side to it. Will never regret this decision though.

So sorry you are feeling bad! :( Have you tried something different with your diet? At 5 months post-op I think your sleeve would be able to handle a bit of spices?

I used to eat non-vegetarian food during my childhood, but for the past 12 years I have been a vegetarian/eggetarian (though I had some chicken 2 years ago when I was in US). I have now started taking fish(salmon). I feel that a bit of spices enhance the flavor and help me eat the fish without feeling nauseous. Sorry - not sure how much of help this is. But I hope you start feeling better soon!

      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.

      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.
