2 weeks Post-Op Questions and Concerns.



Recommended Posts

Sounds like you need to get in touch with the dietitian on staff at your doctors office. Most of the time they can provide you with a list of foods and quantities. If you already have a nutritionist don't hesitate to call them that's what they're there for. None of us are perfect and they don't expect us to be. Good Luck!

​I AM SO EMBARRASSED TO CALL THEM CAUSE THIS IS MY FAULT I WAS NEGLECTFUL AND WANTED TO TEST MY SLEEVE.

They are there to HELP you. Shame is probably one of the things that made you fat in the first ace. Let go of it. My bariatric clinic has a psychologist on staff. Does yours? If yes go see him/her asap or call the office for an urgent referral.

You can't actually "give up" on the sleeve and unless you want to suture to leek you have to comply with your post op instructions.

I did some web crusing before my surgery and was astounded to see the number of people (women mostly) who proudly proclaimed that they ha e been eating should food since a week post opt. BTW, IT Also turns out that they loose slower and ultimately less weight in the end.

I am concerned that you are not taking advantage of the support available to you. It was one of the things you paid for when you got the surgery. I am also concerned that you where given so little information but you can remedy that by reading posts here and asking questions. Bottom line is that for you're safety and well being you must follow your post op instructions to the letter

      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!
