Is this a sign of overeating or advancing diet too quickly?



Recommended Posts

When I eat certain foods, after I eat I will get a burning pain behind my left shoulder every time I swallow. It was so bad the other day I thought I was going to have to go to the hospital, but it finally subsided. Is it from either eating too much or eating something I'm not ready for? It feels much like the gas pain was described, although I never really experienced that after surgery.

Are you eating too fast? Air can get trapped between food bites if you eat too fast. I know I'm the worlds worst!

Did you have a hernia repair?

I would slow down, take smaller bites, chew well, and make sure you are weighing and measuring everything.

Yes, maybe! That's actually a good possibility because the time it was the worst I was eating quickly. Thank you!

No hernia repair, but good advice on the other. I have only been eating a few ounces at a time but I'm thinking it may be eating too fast.

I had something similar happen to me. Not burning, but more like a pressure pain in my upper stomach area. It is when I eat too fast. I am really bad about that. I am finding that since I don't get as hungry as often, if I have waited too long to eat, I end up eating too fast.

      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!
