I would drink.... I know that they say not to, but anytime I have an issue like that, I find if I drink it helps soften the food and helps it to pass.

I wouldn't recommend it all the time.... but in the beginning when I was still learning how to eat properly, I would occasionally have the same problem.

I was always told that my eyes were bigger than my stomach. Now my eyes are TEN times bigger than my stomach! ha ha

Good luck!

pineapple Juice!!!!!! It helps anything that is stuck to go down. It takes about 90 seconds and then it will go on down. I carry the little cans in my car and have some at work just in case. Drinking regular Water does not do anything but come right back up. The acid in the pineapple juice usually breaks down whats stuck, and Quick!!!!!

BrendaLH, THANK YOU for the clue about pineapple juice!!!

I ate only fresh pineapple and melon two days before my surgery, and only fresh pineapple the day before, and I had no problems with gas post-surgery!!!

      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.

        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!
