Not sure if this is right place to vent a little bit. If not, could someone please point me in the right direction?

So....I had Panda Express today. It was a mother daughter outing, we went dress shopping for my cousin's wedding and my daughter wanted to go to PE. I said yes, I thought that I would be able to handle it, BOY was I wrong. Not only did I get sick, literally, after 2 bites but now I have this aweful quilt that I am feeling. I feel miserable that I even went there. Remind you, I am almost 4 weeks post-op. I feel like I should be exercising or something but it's so dang hot here in the PNW (pacific northwest) that going outside would be murder. I don't understand why I am feeling this way. Am I going to feel this way every time I try something that I used to like? This is a learning process, but it is a mental processes as well. /sigh

Welp, thanks for reading.

What did you eat there? If you ate too fast it can make you feel bad. If you ate something (meat, veggie, rice) too soon, your pouch may not like it. It may have been the way the food was prepared (grease/oil).

If its to hot outside I have found this walking DVDs that you can get at Walmart for about 10$ you can do a mile a day or if you are feeling good that day you can do up to 5 miles. Also the DVD has exercises to tone your legs and arms there great DVDs and are worth buying.

I just ordered Leslie Sansone DVD off of Amazon. I have a gift card balance, so why not. Thank you for the suggestion. And it will be great since I live in Oregon, where it rains alot, having those dvd's on hand will be great.

Hey, I'm only 17 days post op but I think what you're going thru is normal!! I live in FL and its super hot here too!! Did PE make you dump?

No...well I am not sure if it made me dump. I haven't experienced any of the symptoms of dumping. I think I ate too fast possibly. But man when it's ready to come up, you better find a bathroom fast. I barley made it.

I ordered a bowl, chow mein and a chicken vegi side. I forgot what it was called. But..I had 1 small bite of chow mein and 1 small bite of chicken. But technically I am supposed to be in the puree stage, so I am thinking that I just got over zealous and ate too fast or the chow mein didn't sit well. I normally don't have an issue with chicken.

      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!
