The day I've been waiting for since my surgery has finally arrived! Week 3 post-op and allowed to start pureed foods! How I have been looking forward to a bit of scrambled egg whites with a bit of cheese and some refried beans!!! Lovingly prepared on my stove, I could not wait to have a taste of real, actual food! No more chicken broth or Water for me!!!!

Sadly, guess my new tummy isn't quite ready. 2 tiny bites over about 10 minutes and my stomach is like "Nope!"

Not sick, but feeling queasy. Maybe today for dinner I'll have some baby food sweet potatoes instead! :-)

All part of the journey, my friends!!!

Yes it is part of the journey and your attitude is awesome!! I am not worried about you at all. Your humor is proof that you know this just a bump in the road and it is. This too shall pass and eventually be a distant memory. Keep trying and keep staying positive. You got this!!

Give it another week and try again. You'all be amazed at how much can change in such a short amount of time. I'm 4 weeks out today and everyday is a learning experience.

      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.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      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!
