I am three weeks post op. I woke up in the middle of the night and ate half a hotdog. Am I going to blow up my pouch. Has anybody else eaten something they weren't suppose to. Please answer. I'm scared.

You don't have a pouch....but don't do that....please be more careful. Remember this is a whole new start. Slow and steady...slow and steady...you will win the race if you can remember that!

I swear I'm not trying to sabotage myself or my diet. I already lost 30 lbs but I'm so scared. I was half asleep until I realized what I was doing.

I would be afraid I'd do more damage to my sleeve by throwing it up.

There was someone that came on a couple days ago saying they were a couple days post op and ate a hot dog and ended up being fine but in some pain. Just be careful and maybe talk to your doctors office so they know and can let you know if it was ok.

I know that it is hard to wait for the time to be up...and to get back to a more normal form of eating, however it is worth the wait. I can eat a hotdog now just fine, but I am almost two years out. Just try to be patient. :)

As long as you chewed it up very well you should be fine.

      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!
