YES..... One time I counted and the figure shocked me..... It is the worst during the day! You will love the yogurt and refried Beans. You will fill so full. But, the liquid stage is really important..... Your stomach swelling needs time to go down. Best wishes!

When I was in the hospital, there was nothing on TV, when I was awake that is, so I watched a little bit of cooking shows. Not sure if I was mourning food or just craving it, but saw some really healthy recipes and the food looked so yummy. Too bad I wasn't awake enough to write down the recipes. LOL

The food Network was my one of my favorite channels before the sleeve. I quit watching when I realized it was cruel, like pulling wings off of a fly,....and I was the fly. :huh:

I've been thinking the same thing! Now that I don't have the liberty to pull up in the drive thru to order what I want I've seen Sonic come out with sweet potato tater tots, Taco Bell come out with the cooler ranch taco, and McDonald's come out with a steak, egg, and cheese Breakfast wrap, and let me not mention the pizza Hut commercials! They are literally making my mouth water!

I had to laugh when I saw your post. I remember being on liquid/blends stage, and every other commercial seemed to be a food one.. I remember saying to myself whats with all the food commercials. It was driving me crazy.. Now at food stage and it does not bother me anymore.. But the moral to the story is. There are really a lot of food commercials out there.. geez!!!

Loved those tacos. And now they came out with cool ranch doritos tacos. Would love to try it, but it's so not worth it now.

Don't even get me started on the food network. It is on at our house all the time. Yesterday after the 3rd episode of Chopped, I told my step daughter that I was changing it. She says "Why" I'm like, "Seriously??? I CAN'T EAT!!! Like Anything!!" Oh and I should point out that while they were watching chopped they were making Breakfast for dinner...with Bacon. :angry:

      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!
