My esophageaous started closing where it intersects w/small intestine but amost everything comes back up due to my forgetting to sip, sip, sip &keep water handy lesson learned.now I'm on surgery list for 25th to dilate enough for food passage. Gotta get Protein by shakes til then.

I am not sure if I am "suppose" to eat ravioli's. In fact I know that I am not, because of the noodle portion. In fact today was the first time to eat this. I am almost 5-weeks post op and I have had Zero complications. So, I take all of those things into consideration. I get 70-oz of Water each day and also drink Protein Shakes without issue.

However, I mush them with a fork and they give me Protein. It is quick and easy as well.

Lol, just so your pouch made sure you knew it didn't like leftover pot roast!

I've have this problem with left over roasts, too. I chop them up and make them into chili. Especially pork roast. Works out great! And no waste. I will freeze the chili in small portions as well. Just an idea for you.

That's a great idea. I'd thought about repurposing it into a chili or curry, but have felt so uninspired to cook the past few days I thought it would be fine to just eat as it one more time. Nope.

Can't argue with the pouch. And it likes to reinforce the lesson so you don't forget. :-)

I don't think that is true. They don't know why some patients get strictures and others don't. I asked my doctors about strictures before surgery.

      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!
