And I have thought of that, but I know people eat it after gastric bypass.

I had popcorn for the first time at about 7 months and had no problem at all. The only issue is that if you buy it pre-packaged to make sure that it has no sugar or other ingredients that could make you dump. The popcorn itself shouldn't.

I waited oh God probably almost a year before i started experimenting with popcorn. But then that opened the flood gates lol. I can eat a crap ton of it now in one sitting so it's on my naughty list. I don't have bypass but i do get sick if i eat too much sugar or fat in one sitting. Sometimes i feel like an overload of carbs and sugar in one sitting makes me sick so i try to limit it. But popcorn so long as its not dripping in butter is cool for me. My fiance made some homemade popcorn with salt a little butter and freshly grated parmesan mixed in. Omg. Sinful. But yeah. Give it time. You should be fine.

      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.

      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!
