So this is more of a vent than a question. :)

I am sooooo unbelievably tired!!! I have so much to do! It's finals week and I am graduating after being at college for 6 years. I have my last two finals tomorrow (Thursday), and then I have to pack up everything, throw away stuff, and do my white glove all before 11:30 on Friday. Not to mention that I threw up 5 times yesterday (not on purpose!) and I wasn't able to eat anything. Today was the same way.

It's really frustrating because the last thing I ate was at 6:30-ish. I didn't even partake of the "Book Arts Edible Book Challenge" because I was trying to be careful. I keep waking up, feeling a kind of choking/drowning sensation. I don't know if this is reflux or not. :tongue2: I'm sure I need an aspiration, but with insurance/time/need to lose weight, I was wondering if there was anything else I can do to get rid of this besides an aspiration. Unfortunately, my acid reducer medicine is in my car, and I don't want to go get it. Anyway.

Thanks for listening, if there's a possibility that there are some of you listening. :thumbup:

Let me know if you are listening! It makes me happy!

I'm listening! I woke up the other night coughing/choking too. Now ever since then I keep burping acid to the top of my throat (and food if I ate anytime soon). There isn't heartburn for me...just the acid. Dr prescribed prilosec 3 weeks ago because i was having heartburn, but it isn't helping this acid thingy. Hope it goes away for both of us soon! (btw I had an upper GI before the dr prescribed the meds and it showed everything was ok with the band and it was not too tight and that in fact I could use a small fill) So confusing!

      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!
