Dinner and pain



Recommended Posts

I am in soft stage and had scrambled egg for dinner. I didn't even finish 1 egg so I am not sure what happened but now I feel like I have an elephant sitting on my chest and its hurting so bad. Maybe I ate to fast and it's having to digest??? I just hope I haven't hurt anything, ugh...

Sounds like it was too much egg. When I was in soft stage I could only eat half an egg. If you slow down your eating, it will be easier to tell when you are getting full. I'm sure you didn't hurt yourself, but it sure can make you miserable to the point of throwing up. Good luck.

I experienced this same exact thing. I was so flipping excited I ate half the egg rather quickly by using the size of bite that got me to 300lbs! Within a few minutes was hurting. My throat felt like it was collapsing. It was a burning. I couldn't swallow, I felt nauseous and even started sweating. So I took a drink of Water to wash it down... And it got worse for a few seconds then let up! The next morning I was taking my Multi-Vitamin with water and got the same feeling... This time I was driving my son to daycare. And I gagged a few times like I was going to throw up... So I pulled over and got out and circled my car a few times and I was fine. Everyone advised me when I posted about my egg experience to walk walk walk.. I guess it helps move the food down. Since then I have been able to eat a whole egg over a 30 min time period with no problem. I just take very small bites and chew it really really well.

Thanks- I just panicked. I don't think I ate more then 1/2 an egg. It tasted great but I have to learn to slow it down..

eggs seem to have a problem settling in a new sleeve. If you ate it fast you will definitely have some discomfort as well. Wait a few days and try again it will probably be much better! :)

Thank you, thank you to everyone on this thread! I was so scared this morning until I read this! I ate a 1/2 an egg and it feels like I'm going to throw up! It hurts so badly! I'm waiting for it to pass right now.... I forgot the whole "chew till its liquid in your mouth" and ate like the old 315 pound me.....

I'm still on full liquids for 11 days. I'm almost afraid to start eating real food. I can't imagine anything being easier then a soft scrambled egg. I guess you really have to watch your bites and timing.

      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.

      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!
