I am 6 months out now and I started drinking pop slowly again at almost 5 months. Some may say thats too soon or you shouldn’t, but I like pop and Its not hurting me

Great, that gives me something to look forward too, what kind are you drinking if you don't mind me asking?

I'm a year and a half out. Per guidance, I had avoided alcohol and carbonation. My daughter and I we're on a cruise, and I decided to enjoy a mimosa with her on our balcony. I had about half a glass when the pain hit my stomach-- Lesson learned for me-- no more than a sip of bubbles. And no more than a sip of alcohol.

Im 17 months post op and haven't tried any carbonated products. I don't plan on either.

But as said by many others : the choice is entirely yours.

i made peace with my fondness for pepsi before the surgery. the doc said no carbonated drinks or straws anymore because of the air bloating you up. im drinking hawaiian punch sugar free.

      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!
