Fluids just go right through the little sleeve. Easier flow :)

It's a slider type of food, easy going down.

I was the same way.

Once I started soft Proteins everything changed.

Only one egg or only a portion of pouch of flavored tuna............

all is good

any type of liquid does go down smoothly

no prob drinking as much as you can

at 3 weeks, no problem with drinking

that's great

the more liquids the merrier

happy 3 week surgiversary (and many more to follow)

keep up the good work

This is normal. And it is why it is important to stop drinking your meals once you get past the first two to three months.

      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!
