Soda, was almost a game changer for me! Now its gum, but I've made a deal and can have half pieces, being a habitual gum chewer at work would do me in! Big changes! New beginnings!

From what I was told coffee is acidic not good for your pouch and CAN but not always cause ulcers. But you can drink regular coffee 8 oz at a time 1 time a day wan then flush with Water the rest of the day and you will be fine.

THAT was what my doctor told me. And every doctor says some thing different.

I love French vanilla Creamer I can not give up.

But 60 calories a day in 8oz of coffee. Hope it does not kill me. That's my only cheat and will be my only cheat. Soda gone for ever candy gone all the bad stuff gone.

I don't cheat Becuse I'm afraid of going back to being fat and I love the way I'm starting to look.

I was wondering the same thing... Why can't we have gum?? I miss coffee i want to try some so bad but i don't want ulcers my mother had gastric bypass when i was in high school over 14 years ago and she had ulcers she never knew why but I'm sure it's the coffee and the cigarettes. That scares me away from the coffee. I do miss it though!

You can't have gum in the off chance you swallow it. It clogs the pouch and causes awful complications

Cold. Beer... I love kicking back with beer... Friday nights around the neighborhood bonfire, watching football, tailgating before games and shows, chilling with family and friends. Yup, I will miss beer.

      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!
