So l am 4 days post op.. And although l dont get hungry, l love the look and the smell of the food that my fiance cooks for herself.. I know that l cant eat the food, but l like to watch her eat.. I find it very satisfying to watch her take bites, and eat this wonderful food.. She thinks there is something wrong with me, and finds the whole thing creepy.. What do you guys think???

I don't find that any creepier than my personal aversion to watching others eat. I'm about over that stage, but it's lasted for nearly 11 months! :)

You're a guy, though. Guys react differently to lots of things than women do. At least I assume you're a guy. :)

I don't think it's creepy at all and I'm a girl. Lol

I know exactly what you mean though coz most of my conversations with my friends are some variation of this;

Me; hows it going...did you cook today? What did you eat?

Friend; ummm I made stir fry today....guess who got fired from their job???

Me; wait so was it chicken or beef?

Friend; it was chicken.....can I finish telling you this news

Me; hold on!....so you just served it over white rice then? Was it good?

Friend; you're so weird.

For some reason I live vicariously through the people around me when it comes to their eating so I totally get you. Im almost 2 weeks post op and food is all I think of. Perhaps this is part of the detoxing period.

      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!
