You will be okay, the first time you get on the scale and see the weight that has started to leave your body that will be the constant reminder that this is why you did it ! I promise it will be a struggle of mind over matter and remember food does not matter! I am one month out and 43 lbs lost I thought I was going to starve to death but realized I did not get this way over night and have been given the ability to be in control of my life and I will make the best out of it Good luck you can do this !!!!

Um....pretty sure I was allowed Soup at five days post op. stop being down on yourself. There is no way you were able to consume more calories then you should anyways. The surgery stops us from physically eating to much....now you have to work on your head hunger. Good luck!

Thanks but I'm saying this because the soup had carrots, potatoes and chicken in it.. Even though it was very soft..

I did the same thing post op, though it wasn't soup..i was worse :( I did mashed potatoes.. God it sucked they tasted so good. I had to remind myself my stomach is still healing and to not push myself. Next time do your best to remove the bits from the Soup, having been cooked with all the bits, the broth will still taste amazing!!

you have to take this one day at a time.. and remember you did this to yourself to BE HEALTHY and BE HAPPY. Like KBurns said, once you get on that scale, you get so excited. I would step on mine almost daily..and each day a pound or 2..it made me want to do better.. First time I hit 199 (first time in 18 years I had been under 200!) I cried...and I Knew then, everything I had done and was doing was beyond worth it. I would never change my decision. I had 'buyers remorse' the first couple of months thinking of all the place I couldn't eat or buffets I wouldn't go to..but seriously? really? I would miss that? I THINK NOT!

Hang in there and don't be so harsh on yourself!

      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!
