I was sleeved on May 29th 2013 and am having a few little issues when it comes to eating . Let me start by saying I had my surgery and was not made to do the psych eval or see a nutritionist , and I am having issues resulting in it. I get such cravings and to sit and smell my families dinner is torture , we have tried by me eating at a seperate time but the smell alone kills me . They made bacon and eggs Father's Day and I had to leave the house , I went to the park and sat in my car and cried . The more i sat there I came to the realization this is MY battle , it's unfair to them to have me make them feel guilty for the foods they eat . I am hoping the more time passes it will all get easier as I try to figure this all out on my own .

Normal. I just have my hubby at home and he's been pretty good though. Just keep thinking there is going to be a healthier you. I had mine the day after you did. You will be able to eat again...just very small portions.

I think we all struggle with that to some extent. I think it is a great break through for you to recognize this as your battle. It may help you to find a support group that is in person or maybe a therapist to help you talk through it and get stronger. 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.

      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!
