oh man I was that part about the lactose intolerance were true for me .... I can't touch anything with lactose beyond cottage cheese without having to visit the bathroom 2-3 hours later ... same goes true for whey Protein shakes ... the milk Proteins in those kill me if I don't take some chewable lactaid prior to the Protein Shakes ... not fun.

10 months out and I still can't tolerate eggs! I used to LOVE eggs - omelettes, deviled, scrambled w/cheese.. etc

Now it is the only thing I can't eat. I am actually less lactose intolerant since the surgery than I was before.

Go figure!

I am on pureed now and eggs are the only thing that sit well. I am eating two daily. If I was allowed, I would eat only eggs. I tried scrambled first day but it was too dry, since then I am eating boiled. Tomorrow I am going to try omelet.

Yup... we're all different and are going to tolerate (or not) different foods at different times. I'm closing in on a year out from surgery and can pretty much eat anything now, but the very first soft food I tried was a scrambled egg once I got permission from my doc, and it came right back up and was my first (of MANY) experience with the dreaded "slimies".

It'll get better, I promise-- wait a while and give it another go!

Good luck to you!

Cheers,

      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.

        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.
