Eating/Drinking Too Much, Too Fast



Recommended Posts

I'm 13 days post-op and I feel like I can eat too much, too fast. For example, in the morning, I drink a full 8oz Protein Shake which takes me about an hour to finish. I think that's fine, but then over the past couple days I've been feeling hungrier more often. So, I try to eat a couple ounces of Protein rich foods throughout the day, and then a second protein shake in the evening. Have I stretched my sleeve already? Is that why I'm feeling hungrier? Is this normal?

I seem to. E having the same issue I'm two moths out and I can eat quite a bit of food. I think I have to constantly remind myself to slow down and allow my stomach to send messages to my brain saying that's enough and not eat until I feel full

You need to stick to portions sizes. I felt like I was straving, I couldn't sip I had to gulp. I couldn't nibble I had finish it. It's so hard. I know I was regretting it like crazy but think lifestyle change everything you used to do didn't work. Take your time!

      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.

      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!
