I just don't feel any restriction. Is it posssible that I have stretched out my pouch? I have had three fills. The third went too far and I had to have it taken out. So I don't understand why I'm not feeling the restriction. I have tried to eat things that would get stuck just to see whats going on and nothing EVER gets stuck! I haven't had anything get stuck in over two months. Does anyone know what's going on?:woot:

I had a fill that was too tight and I ended up choking on meats and stuff like that. I threw up a few times too. It made me eat things that I knew would go down easily! They took some fill out and I went back this week and had gained 1-1/2 pounds. I could eat just about anything and felt hungry and wanted sweets! I got the fill put back in and really took it easy and had only liquids for two days after. They also recommended that I get my 60 gms of Protein a day in. It would help with the cravings. The P.A. told me to try Protein Bars if I wanted for a snack or a bit of chicken salad or tuna salad. I must say it's been working totally different this time even though I have the same amount of fill. I would go back in for another fill if you are too hungry. Did they take out all your fill or just what they put in the last time?

      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!
