My doc says to drink 8oz of Fluid per hour. I don't feel like I can do that. So I don't quite meet the 64oz daily. Now today I'm weak and dizzy. I see my doctor today. What do you guts think?

I think that you are dehydrated and need to work on getting your Fluid intake in as much as possible. Ask your Dr. for an IV to help get you hydrated. This is definitely hard to get in our fluid intake due to the stomach being so swollen....Glad you have an appt today......It will help.... :)

:( you are struggling.......but dehydration is extremely dangerous, it thickens your blood, could cause kidney problems, or a stroke. So I try to be extra careful when it comes to dehydration.... However it is really hard to get in that much of Water in an hour......so get in as much as you can. You can do this.... :)

      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.

        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!
