Melting Down



Recommended Posts

I went to a dinner for a "quick" Breakfast and I had some bacon and eggs. Literally 3 bites later I starting to feel so bad. Sweating cold and shaking. Was it because of bacon or why with such a little amount would I feel like that? Any ideas? It's been 5 weeks since I got sleeved I had those things before and nothing. Leak? Irritation I'm concerned

eggs did that to me until 2 months post op. They're real easy to eat, just hard to digest. I can eat them just fine any way I prepare them now, but if I try to eat two, nope, I get that "urrghhh" feeling.

I too seem to have a bad reaction to eggs and I used to love them before. I eat turkey bacon every morning with no problems.

I started on eggs 2 weeks post op (I am 3 weeks now) but will not be allowed to eat something as solid as bacon for another 6 weeks! My surgeon takes the diet stages very slow. So I would put my money on the fat in the bacon. Because he did mention something to me about fat not settling well until later. I would try eggs again in a week or so by themselves and see how that goes. How long did you feel that way?

I have an egg almost every morning. I tried to eat 2 eggs once, and can't. After 2 months, I tried bacon. It goes down fine. I don't make it a regular thing, though. It's a real treat.

I'm guessing likely the high fat in the bacon. I can eat it occasionally, but even now it doesn't always sit very well (I try to fry it pretty crisp to get a lot of the fat out of it). I can't eat hot dogs any more either, and certain types of sausage irritate me as well.

      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!
