And I'm only 3 weeks out............ Really disappointed. I just feel like I can eat different things finally. (I only had 4 bites, then I was full)

At 3 weeks out I would've been afraid to eat pizza....ugh I can feel the crust sticking right now!! But a week ago I had my first craving....I wanted to order a small meat lover pizza and eat all of the toppings off....I could've done it if I wanted to, I was cleared for regular food, I chose not to do it because it would go against what I am working towards, a healthier me....

Bottomline: whats done is done, you cant go back, but dont make a habit of it....your sleeve is still in its baby stage....dont push things along because you "feel" like you can do more....I actually did that too, and I ended up fighting off a virus, long story short, I went to the movies 2 weeks out and got sick..

follow your doctors orders, unless you desire to be a statistic...

You need to figure out why you ate the pizza and what you will do the next time because there will be a next time. Don't defeat the purpose of the sleeve....

You know, just because you "can" doesn't mean you "should," and I'm not talking about "oh, you're being naughty, eating that 'bad' food." I'm talking about you can do damage to your sleeve! Please be super careful during these first couple of months and let your incisions heal properly--there's a serious reason your physician has you on a particular diet after surgery, and it's really not designed just to keep you from enjoying your food! Be careful, please--you really don't want to end up with a leak or a complication!! HUGS!!

      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!
