Weird dreams



Recommended Posts

Is anyone else experiencing weird dreams. I'm not on any pain meds so I don't think that's it, but I've been having the weirdest dreams lately. Can you think of some other reason I'd be having these?

I would imagine that being banded fairly recently you are dealing with a lot of issues (STRESS). I had my band back at the end of April and I know I was on a wild ride for the week before surgery and the first few weeks after. I too had weird dreams. I think that perhaps it goes with the territory. You might start a dream journal if you remember your dreams just so that you can examine them for similarities, it might help you to see where your subconcious is wandering off to when you aren't looking.

I had several of the "oh my gosh I am at work and I suddenly notice I am wearing JUST my bra and panties (or less)" I have not had a dream like that since I was a teeny bopper for crying out loud!!! But it was pretty clear to me when I was thinking it over that my dreams are working out some of my body conciousness issues.

I was really confounded by the one where I was at my boss' parent's house and I had bike problems and my boss's mom sold my bike and then gave me a small yappy dog to help get me home (like I was supposed to ride it or something, LOL). Now that dream just lacked any logic of any kind - esp considering I don't know my boss's family and they live on another continent. Weird dreams happen. What you do with them is up to you. ;-)

Funny about dreams. A little over 3 months ago I quit smoking. For weeks after I was having dreams of smoking a cigarette while driving, or just smoking in general.

Well, I am 6 days post-op and it is getting easier. As far as dreams, I just had one and I was having butter Cuban bread with coffee and milk in that dream. Weird, cause I was thinking how much I would like some but I just can't.

      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!
