I Dont Feel Any Different



Recommended Posts

I had my surgery on 4/23 and I was discharged on 4/25 eating puréed food already. I read so many posts however that most people stay on just liquids for weeks. I guess every surgeon has a different plan. Anybody else eating so soon after? I definitely didn't desire ANY food until yesterday. Now I'm hungry all day and I want to eat a pizza :). The thought of pureeig a pizza makes me not want one so fast!!!

I was on full liquids by day 3 and mushies by day 10. I am still on mushies, but truthfully, a whole lot of things are mushy when you chew them very very well. I go back to regular foods a little more than 6 weeks after surgery, so for me I get to eat some darn peanuts again on the 18th of May. The main purpose is to allow your stomach to heal and help you not hurt yourself. I have had no issues with this diet (except I want a salad more than I can describe).

So how long before you can have relations with the spouse? I had my sleeve done monday

We tried about a week an a half out, it was too soon. The movement made the muscles in my stomach very sore. Tried again a few days later, but I had to keep my tummy from moving too much for about 2 weeks! I think everyone will be different but the muscle healing process should be similar. NOW THAT is TMI, but I hope it helps!

      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!
