eating like a bird to eating like a lady - OR AM I?



Recommended Posts

Ok so it will be month 5 on the 13th. I spoke once before about not having much restrictions (as compared to the early stages). Of course there is still restriction, but I was able to polish off two pieces of bread and butter as a result of being on business travel. I will certainly go back to my regular eating once I get home, but I was surprised that I could eat so much.

The other night I had no choice but to get room service and I orderd a shrimp marinara Pasta. I should have told them to hold the pasta, but I was able to eat most of it over a period of 3 hours. I kept eating. Once the restriction let up, I took another bite.

No self control. It wasn't a little bowl of pasta either. BIG FETTUCINNI! I want to cry as I feel like on this trip I will actually gain. I will give myself the weekend to get back into gear before my Monday weigh in.

I called the airline just to get my out of here early so I am leaving tonight to go home because I didn't want to sit in front of a big bowl of pasta again tonight.

Besides just the eat your protien first there should be a guide to give you hints like...

TELL THEM NO TO GIVE YOU ANY BREAD or PASTA - Just the Protein.< /p>

I am really scared. If my tummy continues to grow...eventually so will I.

      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!
