Oh my Gosh that was me. I had a hernia repair too & I felt the same way I just stayed on liquids until that nausea passed. I'm 4/12 weeks out. It will go away in time I would eat lots of sugar free Popsicles & cold stuff.

I am scheduled for july 2. I have to have a h. hernia repair as well. Does this significantly increase the recovery time and make for more pain? I am just curious as to what I should expect. Also, as for a grocery list...what will I need from the store to keep me full???

This info. is good to know I am 1 week out and I had a hernia removed as well. I have not experienced a great deal of nausea yet. Of course I still have a week on the full liquids. Popsicles are very satisfying for me as well.

I had a surprise h.hernia repair thrown in with my sleeve, lol. I don't think it increased recovery time. My biggest hurdle was the incision that my surgeon said he had to cut a muscle to pull stomached through. But it's been two weeks today and it feels pretty good, virtually no discomfort.

Attached is my food progression list my surgeon wants me to follow.

Today I had oatmeal, only ate a 4th of the packet. I also had bake potato today, was only able to eat a 4th of that also. Both things sat well in my new stomached.

I'm looking forward to tuna Fish Day!!! Lol

From what I understand... when the doctors go in to do the sleeve... they are repairing the hernia that already exists. A hiatus hernia or hiatal hernia is the protrusion (or herniation) of the upper part of the stomach into the thorax through a tear or weakness in the diaphragm.

Is that something that happened pre-surgery? Is that from GERD or something. How on earth would you know you had that?

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
