Each surgeon's plan is different. The right way is to stick to the plan you were given by your surgeon.

I’m just worried if works I’m unable to really see until I can start some type of food intake I drink liquids fine that’s not the issue I’m just concerned that my stomach sealed correctly and how long does that take

You're worrying for no reason. If your stomach wasn't sealed correctly, you would know. It doesn't require food intake to test that.

Just relax and follow your surgeon's plan :)

Take each new stage slowly, a tiny taste at a time, and wait, and only take a couple bites. Any real food introductions need to be done slowly to see how your stomach will react, as you are not healed. It is different for everyone.

How long is the healing process ? I’m just worried that it will bust open and another issue I’m having I feel still run down and tired I’m taking my Vitamins but I feel if I could eat some Protein I would feel better

That's why he said to wait,2 weeks, he cares about,you more than that says start eating,nuts, popcorn and such right away. I doubt I'll ever eat popcorn again, no loss when you consider what I'll be gaining. So I will listen to my doctors advice, they know what they did and how they did it. As a bypass,the last thing to heal for me will be my anastomosis where they join my intestine to my stomach pouch, that is timed in months,instead of days or weeks. NBT no big thing , I know I will be just fine and dandy😝my surgeon is the very best I could have found, I trust him, I trust his hands, why would I not trust,his advice?😷🏣😝

      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.

        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!
