I used to eat such good things...now I feel like I'm living on scrambled eggs, deli meats, cheese, and yogurt! I was doing great at 6 weeks out, now at almost 10 weeks my poor stomach is having such issues. I had an endoscopy almost 2 weeks ago that showed severe gastritis (irritation) and so many things just don't sit well anymore. A lot of the foods I depended on make me sick now. I'm really hoping this will resolve over time because I'm getting really frustrated. I'm down 46 pounds since my surgery, and 70 from my high, so that's the good news. I just hope I don't have to deal with this part much longer...

My stomach changed so much with surgery.. those things I used to like.. I no longer like.. scrambled eggs is one of them.. Ive tried pizza.. and no go there.. too heavy.. so I dont eat that anymore either.. any food that is dry.. I cant handle.. so my foods for the most part have to be very moist.. which is ok.. I can handle it.. sorta keeps me away from stuff I shouldnt have.. I dont use salt.. so any processed foods taste so salty to me.. my hubby one time put some sea salt on some steak I was going to eat..and I couldnt eat it.. too salty..and he didnt put much on there either.. I told him not to put anything on my food at all.. poor thing lol.. I find I really dont miss out on anything at all.. cuz I have my fav. things to eat too.. hope your stomach issues resolve.. mine have just by changing what I eat yet again.. my tummy is so finicky LOL.. best of luck to you. :)

I also had severs gastritis and was put on a corse of omapreazole for 8 weeks after a week I felt better and continued it for another week then stopped. I feel so much better. You can buy omaprazole over the counter. Good luck and I hope you feel better :)

I went from Nexium to Dexilant - and also on Carafate 4x a day. It's been two and a half weeks and still not as good as I was. It's kind of depressing to look at a fridge full if stuff and/or a menu at a restaurant and struggle to find something to eat. Hopefully it will improve - thanks for the good wishes!

      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!
