I’m in the pre-op stages. I’ve had 3 weigh-ins 1st was back in June. I’ve had chest X-rays, endoscopy, slept study and blood panel drawn this far. Have not been given date for sugary yet nor have I’ve lost enough weight to get under the 300lb mark my surgeon/dr wants me at. I’ve Feel like I’m getting nowhere with support from those immediate to me who said they help support me thru this.
Anyone have advice on how to get spouse into same mindset of reducing the amount of junk food (chips, candies, little Debbie Snacks, chocolates) that are being purchased and brought into the house biweekly? I’ve been trying to explain having $50+ of it all is something that makes it so hard to stay away from and causing me to feel like I’m being set up for failure. Plus it’s just my spouse and I in our home. We have no kids being a lesbian couple and it’s rare we have family and friends over to help eat the junk food spouse loves so much.

Well, since my husband is cooking spare ribs for dinner, I'm the wrong one to ask! Hope someone else can give you helpful 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.

      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!
