None of the above. I no longer care about the holidays. Sad isn't it?

Idk why but I can't eat chicken or pork. I'm having a hard time during the holidays but good thing is I guess since I won't be eating my husband isn't forcing me to go out & do BBQ. Maybe next year I will feel normal about holidays. Idk what I'm gonna do about thanksgiving & Christmas. I always make big meals on the holidays.

You had your surgery already right? How you get all that down? Did anything give you any problems? I find that meat unless it's grounded and soaked in a chilli or stew or Soup I can't keep it down. Gets stuck and it comes right back up. Never tried soda yet. juice I have been drinking to no ill-effect.

I had a grilled veggie burger with no bun, a dab of lite mayo, a little onion and Tomato and a piece of fresh spinach. A 1/4 of a dill pickle and a tiny salad of fresh spinach, a couple chunks of cucumber and tomato with fat free dressing. I have went through TOO much to mess up....this was my first real meal since surgery...ill be 6 weeks out tomorrow.

Everyone is different and what our bodies can tolerate is also different. I'm 6 months out, to me it's not so much what I eat but how much. I ate a tablespoon of potato salad. I did forgo the cake for my sons birthday because I don't want to fall back into my bad habits. I haven't had pop in over 6 months and Minot going to. Each must determine what is right for us.

      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!
