So my first day on puréed and I've had some refried Beans,wonderful!!!

Tonight for supper I chose to eat some Greek yogurt, my NUT said today I prob wouldn't be able to eat the 5oz container, I've been eating on it slowly and I've eaten the 5oz within an hour, slowly and one small bitty bite at a time!! If I'm able to eat the 5oz like that I won't stretch or hurt anything will I? Cause I'm thinking that my stomach is emptying before I'm putting in the next tiny bite!

I'm not having any pain with it, and I've not had a drop of anything to drink!!!

I know people get tired of the same type questions, sorry just trying to reassure myself

Your meal should last up to 20 -30 min. tops...anything more then that.....it was recommended by my team to push the food away if you are not done in that time.....I find it to be a good timing element for the sleeve.

Then I wait for the next meal to eat again....10 months out I can eat up to a cup of food in a sitting...depending on the type of day I am having..If my stomach is funky..I eat way less...

Refried Beans along with a lot of other great things are on my approved list from the nutritionist!! Greek yogurt is on that list also, just no fruit on the bottom kind, it has to be smooth!!! Puréed stage also has LOTS of "pasty" consistency foods!!!

      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!
