For some reason, while sitting in the allergist’s office, I Just realized that due to the size of my pouch, any buffet will be a silly choice. Ha! Hurrah!

What “doh!” revelations have others had?

Yup. Same "doh!" moment for me. I almost always skip out on buffets. Its acceptable to me to spend $13 on an entrée when I can take the leftovers home and have 2 or 3 more meals out of it, but to spend $13 on a buffet where its only one meal is just too wasteful.

The bariatric team here gives a special dietary needs card which gives me children price on a buffet (Golden Corral ) or I can order off the child menu if I go out to eat.

They do come in handy. Kids eat more in a sitting then I do, lol.

Have you ever had the waiter or waitress keep asking if you want something to drink? I now just tell them Water and leave it sitting there, it is just easier then explaining it or to keep saying no thank you.

      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!
