I have the dreaded early waking insomnia--I wake up early and cannot get back to sleep. I have no problem getting to sleep at night though. Some remedies that have worked for me: Designs for Health Insomnitol chewables (pricey, but I use them maybe 1-2 times a week as melatonin should not be used daily) , walking for exercise in the mornings, staying away from sugar/high carb foods, eliminating caffeine esp. after noon, Gaia Herbs Rhodiola Rosea, and Traditional Medicinals Organic Licorice Root Tea. I have tried many others, but these are the only ones that have helped me. I have a strange metabolism and many things affect me in an opposite way. For example, I am energized by magnesium instead of calmed.

I was sleeved on Feb 26th. I have terrible insomnia. I can't sleep and when I eventually do-I'm only sleeping for 3hrs at a time. I really hope this passes soon.

      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!
