5 weeks out..is this normal?



Recommended Posts

Hi all. I'm 5 weeks out and I feel like everything has been Smooth sailing.

I'm curious as to what is normal. I am usually around 500 cal, 45grams Protein in a day. I have been able to tolerate everything that I've tried.

One concern: today is the second time this his happened to me.......i eat solid protein (soft chicken breast and a small bite of soft broccoli) around 11:00am and then I'm literally full for hours. I eat slow and don't eat more than I should and even several hours later I can't tolerate Water because I now feel soooo full. I haven't been able to eat anything else today since then because everything still feels very heavy inside. Being thirsty...took a few sips of water and began having strong pain and cramping from the fullness.

It's only happened twice but just seams so strange that the heavy feeling and discomfort builds with time and prevents me from any further consumption. Thoughts?

      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.
