I didn't expect...



Recommended Posts

to miss food. Today seems like a tough day. I want pizza. That seems to be my biggest craving. Maybe I'm just tired and emotional, but today I miss food.

I used to be mad because I never felt full or satisfied. Now I feel full and satisfied too quickly.

Guess it's just a blah day.

I haven't had my surgery yet, but I just wanted to send out a big hug! I'm sure most have felt that.

I know how you feel. I get really hungry, but feel full after only a few bites and food doesn't't taste all that great. I guess that's not a bad thing , but it's not what I expected.

If you are craving pizza, try cutting a chicken breasr really thin sprinkle with garlic powder and broil in the oven til it's done. Add your pizza sauce, pepperoni and mozzarella cheese and pop it back under the broiler until the cheese is bubbly. Hopefully this will satisfy your craving with less calories than the real thing.

I am 6 weeks out and trying to find my way, but it is a process. Good luck, maybe tomorrow will be better

@@shortsleeved made a good point. There are good alternatives to have the pizza taste with out the guilt. I hope you find a recipe that will satisfy the craving.

On my rough days. I try on the clothing I wore at my highest weight. I pat myself on the back. I know tomorrow is a new day and I press on.

      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!
