yes you will start noticing a little less food and then a little less Water each day consumed and feel nauseous and you may feel pain or uncomfortable feeling and you may vomit. I didn't have vomiting this time. just less consumption with pain but I also have gallbladder issues that was just diagnosed a few hours ago.

I have noticed an uncomfortableness when I drink liquids. Feels like a knot in my chest started late last week and have got sick more. Just thought I was becoming intolerant to certain foods.

try taking smaller sips to see if it helps and go slower. now food makes it more uncomfortable. if it gets worst and everything seems to get stuck call dr

I have tried slowing down even more and sipping even smaller sips. It's not better but not worse so some improvement. If it continues need to call the dr.

Sounds like pouch swelling. Eat crushed ice instead of drinking for awhile

Crushed ice is awesome. If you have a Sonic drive-in, they will sell you a bag of it for a good price. I can eat a huge cup of crushed ice easier than the same size cup of Water.< /p>

      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.

        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!
