Operation last week and eating a lot today anyone else had this



Recommended Posts

I feel full on very little. I ate about a third of a cup of pea Soup for lunch today (12:30). And I was as full as I used to feel after any big meal. I didn't get hungry again until 6pm. dinner was a Greek yogurt.

Just out of curiosity' date=' are you able to eat and drink at the same time? Do you experience any acid or indigestion? That is a big factor for me because I am so accustomed to eating fast and pushing things down with Water or milk. I am petrified about having this revisional surgery.[/quote']

You can't eat and drink st the same time. You need to wait thirty minutes before drinking. If u r a revision shouldn't u already follow those rules?

Yes I can eat and drink, you just shouldn't....it allows you to eat more and defeats the purpose of doing this. If I'm out with others I will occasionally have a few swallows of Water, if doesn't harm me or cause pain, I just avoid it because of the reason mentioned above. (I will drink a little when I eat Peanut Butter toast!!!! That stuff is like glue!). Are you a revision from Bang or sleeve???? I'm a former band and 5 months in am so much happier and more comfortable with my RNY then I ever was with that damn band!!! It's so worth it!!!

HW 312, pre-op (RNY) 255, current weight 204.6

No I had a VBG which is not performed now. I was always able to eat and drink at the same time. It would just get stuck and eventually pass.

After your RNY revision, you will definitely want to follow your doctor's instructions regarding no fluids for at least 30 minutes before and after eating (some doctors may recommend a longer period). There are some very good reasons for that - do a search for the topic "Why no Water with meals?" on the forum and you'll find lots of good information including a great video.

      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.

        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!
