Time of the month



Recommended Posts

Ok i am seeing a pattern when my time is going.. I feel I can barely get anything down.. If i do not much stays there..Am I alone. My family is all worried about my eating and getting sick. But I truly can keep very little time down this time of the month. So today I will just drink so I am not misrable.. I am drinking a Protein Shake right now. but amazing enough if I dont drink it slowly I am sure this also would be a problem. Only a few days a month. Crazy stuff.. I am not eating any differntly right now than any other time. I spoke with my doc. he said just to eat very slowly. but at these times food really is not ok for me. Just want to know if anyone else has these days

That actually happens for me too! I'm glad I'm alone! I just got my band in March and my first period since then was like last week and I could barely eat or drink anything. It helped a lot to drink warm tea and as much Water as possible. It only lasted for like 2 days for me though, so if yours is lasting longer, I'm sorry I couldn't be of more help :thumbdown:

I have this problem every month. I just went to my doctor this week to address the situation. She was very hesitant to remove any of my fill since I have been doing so well, but I finally convinced her to at least remove .1 cc because it is becoming unbearable for a few days each month. I'm not sure that .1 cc will do anything because my restriction feels the same right now, but I should know in about a week.

      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!
