Last night 3 hours after dinner (2oz of salmon) I ate a frozen yogurt thinking I can have yogurt why not freeze it. Well I had the worst pain! I didn't have dumping or vomit but if would have helped me I wish I did! :(

Then today for Breakfast I ate a scrambled egg with cheese, and I realized I get so full with less than 2 oz of egg than I do with all 2 oz of salmon. I don't get it! Egg gets me sooo full.

Can anyone relate to either?

I tried egg and it felt like it got stuck and only a few bites filled me up. I think because it's very dense and kind of dry. I have heard that poached eggs go down much easier - and they aren't as dry...

I have to say that I have similar experiences. I can only eat a limited amount of dense Proteins like meat, but eggs often dont fill me up. I can eat a cup of chopped vegetables but again an apple will stuff me after a few well chewed bites. I am about 2 months out and it is always been like this even when eating pureed foods. I have to be careful not to overeat at times. Wierd huh????

      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.

        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!
