I had my surgery June 25

Yesterday I went to see my surgeon because I've been experiencing heartburn for the last week now. He told me that my calories are low I need to eat 1000-1200 calories a day. So he put me back to eating every 2hrs :-(

How are you doing with your eating?

I have noticed when I don't eat enough that my heartburn acts up as well. I am eating about 700-800 calories a day.

That could be it as well , now my problem is how to eat 1000cal as he recommended unless I drink them but that's not healthy either :-(

I'm always amazed at those calories...I find that I don't lose if I eat less than 1200 a day. I can easily get 1000 in per day, then work on the extra :)

I don't always track my calories but I guess I will. I have been very fortunate in the stall department. I usually just add them in my head but I will start using my fitness pal to do it. I sometimes wonder if I should up my calories but it scares me also.

You have the same surgery date at myself! Interesting that you eat more calories than me and have lost 5 more pounds than myself. Maybe I need to up my calories.....just a little scary though!

Trust me, I feel like a fatty eating so much more than everyone else here...

...until I remember that my journey is my own. What works for ME is what matters (along with my awesome doc's advice!). Good luck!!

      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!
