Month out and confused



Recommended Posts

I am a few days from a month out, things are going well, I am getting my Water and Protein. My provider has me moving to full diet this week. I have been so conflicted on what to eat and do, so many opinions.

So I have really just started trying things to see what happens, nothing bad of course but I have tried salad and lunchmeats. Spicy things for some flavor. I just don't know if I am doing wrong or not. I have been assuming if I don't dump or have pain, I should be ok. I have vomited once after eating some turkey a bit too fast, otherwise though, I feel good. Is that enough? Is my body going to tell me if I have done wrong?

So AC , by full diet, do you mean the food for life phase ?the very last phase ? a month post op seems really quick , I’m a month post op and still on puréed. I guess if your stomach isn’t complaining and you’re keeping it down, you have to follow what your body tells you . Have you been given follow up info ? Keep us updated and ask ask ask if you’re not sure . Good luck

Yes, your body will tell you when it doesn't like something. I still get the "foamies" 9 months out with bread, doughy things, soft tortillas, and Pasta.

I had the go-ahead at 4weeks to move to my forever diet.

But my instructs were to follow my dietary guide for quantities, measurements, etc and with tips for success and sample meals. Also had the instructs to try only 1 new thing at a time and wait a few days before adding another new thing. To go very slowly. And if something didn't work, then to try it again in a couple of weeks.

      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!
