5 Days Post Op & Not Full...at All.



Recommended Posts

Its been 5 days since surgery, and I've been home for 2. I've been drinking liquids. But have yet to feel full or hungry.

Even if I drink quickly, the most I get is some gas but I'm even able to tolerate that.

I'm starting to worry a bit. As I don't want to not feel restricted.

I was the same way I'm 6 weeks post op never felt full or hungry kinda sucked because I never felt satisfied. All of a sudden this week it's like the signals clicked and I felt full and satisfied when eating its like my brain had to figure out what it felt like.

I'm almost 3 weeks post op from RNY. I have the same issue with not being full. I can drink with no problems. I get full after several bites of food. I thought I would feel restriction from the surgery.

      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!
