Not since the first two weeks and can't figure out why I was using one then.

I have always used a regular teaspoon and a 4oz plastic Glad container as my bowl.

I use a toddler spoon or a tea spoon (the one witht the long handle). I have been looking for some more so I have 1 at work and at my Mom's so I don't have to carry a spoon and fork in my purse all the time. However I am having an issue finding them where they are smaller than adult silverware, no wonder our kids are so over weight....lol I haven't bought the plastic sets only because with the plastic forks you can't stab any kind of meat. If you find a place to get them please let me know and I will do the same. I have been using them since b4 surgery and I do find my bite's are smaller and that's good now that im 3 weeks out cus big bites are not my friend :}

Look in a restaurant supply store. You'll find what you are looking for. I got 8 for about 11 dollars.

I used a baby spoon for several months. It really helped a lot to learn to eat slower and smaller bites.

I used small silverwear and plates/bowls I bought at the Libbey glass outlet. I used the silverwear for about a month, but not any more. I use small plates/bowls always.

      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!
