oh donuts!



Recommended Posts

First, my boy friend is supportive of my surgery. But sometimes he can be so dumb. Last night he came home with a box of mixed donuts. One of my addictions is sweets. I love Boston cremes and there were two in there.

So wole he and the kiddo ate some, I was shaking as I ate my greek yogurt. Ive done so well not wanting anything bad, but last night and this morning has been torture! Despite the "just one bite..." reasoning, I was good and ate yogurt again. The other half of me wants to be mean and smash the box over his head. :(

Just frustrated.

My husband did this pre-op. He's always been supportive of the surgery. At first I thought he was trying to sabotage me. Then I realized, food has been literally the 3rd member of our marriage since day 1.

He would literally forget that I could no longer indulge. After a few conversations about it, I got him to realize he had to think about my food choices before buying me treats. That seemed to help him (not be frustred when I threw items out) and I.

You are a rock star. That was pretty insensitive what was done to you and you prevailed. You're an inspiration.

Ah sme here with my family. I've always taught my kids to share so they get a snack or buy treats or whatever and they offer me everything. Lol I just say no thanks. But after a while they started geting mad at eachother and reminding each other that I cannt eat that stuff. Its too funny. I just laugh now.

When I was about ten days postop, hubby wanted me to ride with him to get some Popeye's chicken. I figured okay that is better than me cooking. I got some mashed tators and they were so good.

But now everynight he sits and eats ice cream and does not bother me in the least

That is in the past

Thanks for the sympathy all. Much appreciated. He really is a supportive guy and encouraging with the workouts. He is very fit and just had a carb craving and didn't think about my reaction to the sweets. Its just strange that this is the first craving-fight I've had to deal with since the preop diet. Weird.

Even if you had taken a bite, probably one bite would have put your mind back in touch with your tiny teeny "stomach" and your stomach would have said Hell no--can't handle that fat and fried stuff.

Good job

      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!
