I've been reading different forums and some people say they have trouble eating rice and Boars Head lunch meat. Is there any other foods that I should look out for? I'm trying to avoid ALL stuck episodes!

I have brown rice and have never been stuck but I do chew it a lot. As for cold cuts, I can only chew turkey and chicken. I don't eat ham, so I can;t answer about that. Roast beef was very hard to chew. I had skirt steak last night for dinner, it din't get stuck but was very hard to chew. I do eat ground beef and filet mignon without trouble. I have even tried a hot dog and had no problem. I had Nathan's skinless.

Good luck.

Well if you are like me avoiding any is impossible! Some days I can eat eggs, other days I can't. Some days everything I eat gets stuck, other days nothing does! The band is a fickle thing. But there are some things that I avoid always. Like bread. It always gets stuck. And reheated meat. And pork! I can't do any of those. Good luck though! :)

yes some days I can eat most anything.. I have been stuck on scrambled eggs .. but not usually. I think the main thing is you have to chew whatever you eat.. white meat chicken is very dry so it needs a sauce or something to soften it up... but everyone has their own foods that they tolerate and foods they can't eat... just be careful and eat slowly...

      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!
