My husband bought me a pack of m&m's about a week ago and of course it ran right through my sleeve, felt zero restriction. I had a talk with my husband about the fact that he can't buy me stuff like that. My other weakness is fruit snack gummies and I purchased those for my kids to eat but of course I found myself munching on them also, thankfully my sleeve didn't like them. I guess like others I had to learn the hard way and I realized that I can't have stuff like that in my house, even if it's for my kids. I don't want to fall back into the old habits that got me to where I was at my heaviest. I guess what I'm trying to say is keep your trigger foods out of the house, that's whats working for me. Just learn from this and keep moving forward. Learn how to cope without food. Keep your head up :)

I ALWAYS experience this! I stress eat also!!! What I did was get some sugar free pops and fudge bars. I keep them in the deep freezer that's in my garage not the house freezer. This way I have to walk further to get to them. I normally allot 100 calories of my 650 that I am eating a day for stress eating and if it happens I only eat my s/f pops and fudge pops. It is working great for me. PLEASE stop the candy you dont want to ruin everything now. YOU CAN DO THIS!!!

      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!
