I don't know but I get the same. Then it leads to vomiting. I'm just now 16 days out I'm struggling with certain foods. And knowing I'm full until its too late. I think I'm going to space out my bites by minutes. Good luck.

I think they call that the slimes. Just don't get so full next time :)

Everyone has their own tell when they are getting full. Some people sneeze, some burp (me) and others get pain in their sternum. Just watch for your sign, something you notice and then you'll know when to stop.

What Traci said. The best way to recognise your sign is to eat ridiculously slowly and listen to your body :)

      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!
