Well!

I'm 3 weeks post op

I'v tried some eggs and within 2 or 3 small bites I get all yucky and puke!

So I went back on liquids. Today I had a few tiny bites of chicken and got that pukie feeling again. This time I took slow deep breaths and the feeling left. Is anyone else feeling this way?

Am I always going to feel like this?

I had my surgery 6/10 and still cannot eat. I know within minutes if it is going to come back up. The most I can eat is 1-2 TBL. I usually cannot eat at night at all??? I can eat about a half of egg and it is ??? whether it will stay down. I get a terrible feeling and then thick mucus comes up (TMI). I do a little better if I don't drink thirty minutes before I eat and wait 45 minutes after I eat. I have to take little bity bites and chew chew chew! Wait between bites. Tried watermelon last night and I knew immediately that I had messed up with the first bite. I was able to get a few bites of potato Soup from Scholtzsky's down today at lunch and so far so good!

I have had my surgery on April 24, 2014. Don't panic, focus on what goes down well. That is what the bariatric nurse told me. Try something new every now and then. One day it will sit well in your pouch, the next day it might not. For the first six weeks I have experienced nausea and puking at least once a day. Once my pouch was upset, it didn't want anything the rest of the day. I thought it would last forever....

I am 14 weeks out now and I can eat so much more than those first weeks! Stuff like potatoes or meat still won't sit every day, but I found out that my new me loves fish and seafood a lot. Which has Protein as well. It will get better, trust me!

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      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.
