Love/hate my restriction



Recommended Posts

I'm well over 18 months out Today my husband made lasagna. One of my favorite meals. I cut a small piece for lunch , about a 3x3 square. Took 3 bites and got that warning feeling to not take another bite I love my restriction. Because I surely would overdo it on a day like today I hate my restriction because that lasagna tasted so good!! Oh well the rest got packed up for lunch at work tomorrow

18 months out with PLENTY of restriction. Love it!!

So good to hear that even after 18 months there will be restriction. I heard that as times go by.. Our restriction diminishes even though we are careful with our portion size ..is that true.

Great post! I feel the same. Love it, but hate it when I'm having something dee-lish.

Very happy to hear you still have good restriction at 18 months. Very encouraging.

The denser the food, the less volume I can handle.

For example , the lasagna is loaded with beef & cheese. A few bites and I was done yet when it comes to salad greens and cole slaw, both of which I eat daily... I can eat a LOT more at a sitting

Not a bad problem to have.

      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!
