Got stuck! Back to basics...



Recommended Posts

I had my 2nd fill last Friday. I have 8 cc in a 14cc APL band. During this whole process, I seemed to do quite well. I could eat anything, bread included and nothing bothered me.

This morning I woke up and during Breakfast I got stuck. (I started feeling fuller and fuller yesterday and remember during my 1st fill, my doc told me that it could take a few days after your fill for you to feel restriction.)

I guess I thought I was invincible, that I would never get stuck, never have a PB or slime, etc.

Well today was a wake up call for me. Back to the basics now...

I finally had a PB and it came up, but boy was I miserable! I think I learned my lesson...

alot of people can't eat breakfast like normal. I can't eat anything till at least 9am. If i do, it comes right back up.

WOW that brought back memories of two weeks ago when I had my first "stuck". I found out fast what slime and PB'ing meant!! lol :mellow: If it happens again I think I am going on liquids for the rest of my life!!

I don't know if you ever saw the movie The Excorsist, but I suddenly felt like that famous scene with the green (pea soup) slime! :blink: It took over my body and scared the bejeeeeezs out of me! I stayed on anything without lumps in it for a week.

Yeah, my doc's assistant told us: "once your feet hit the floor in the morning, get something to drink."

Makes it easier for breakfast to go down (and everything else- I try to get my 60 oz's of Water in by 2pm and have little trouble the rest of the day).

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      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?
