I had similar cravings today! While making my 7 year olds lunch, she requested slices of watermelon. Just smelling it, as it was glistening in the sunlight, and looking so ripe,red, and juicy, I felt like I could bite my own arm off for a piece. UGH!! Also, Instead of pickles I wanted olive juice so baddddd! Not the olives, ...just the salty brine. I gave into the olive juice craving, I had a teaspoon, just enough to get it out of my head. I drank extra Water to make up for it! Lol. :-)

Haven't tried yet, but if you are familiar w/Chico's I dont think it'll be a problem. They basicly fall apart anyhow.

I'm 23days out now.

You could sip the juice maybe' date=' but it's pretty acidic. I think I'd wait awhile.[/quote']

I'm in the Dallas area too!

I LOVE pickles! I'm only 10 days postop and the Pickle Juice from the spicy pickles in my fridge was screaming my name the other day. :-) I ended up putting a real small amount through my strainer into a cup and drank the two small sips of it. It was soooooo delicious and my sleeve didn't mind it. I can't wait to actually get to eat them again. Heck, I can't wait to eat anything again. The end of my 21 day postop liquid diet can't come soon enough!

      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.

        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!
