11 days post bypass - and last night in my sleep I ate my bright orange wax earplug!

Pretty sure THAT is not in my post-op menu list!

I don’t usually wear ear plugs but we are staying in a hotel - the ear plugs clearly bother me, I sometimes take them out and stick them weird places in the night, like in the lampshade, squished inside my bedside reading etc.

But eating one! Well, I appear to have chewed it a bit, so fingers crossed my new tummy can figure out what to do - else it is Christmas Hospital Visit for me!

Merty Christmas to you all...

Good news! I researched a little and earplugs (even with residual ear wax) have zero calories! :):):)

I don't think you have anything to worry about.

Merry Christmas and a very happy new year!

Have you had a wad of pink poop yet? Inquiring minds and all? (psssst...I alternately snorted Water out of my nose and read in your situation with extreme horror!) :D Good times.

In my ‘firehose’ phase I would have noticed immediately. Now things are more solid, I didn’t deconstruct, but I assume so!

The recalled feel of bits of orange wax between my teeth still grosses me out. But at least I chewed!!

      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!
