I'm 2 weeks post op and I'm on purée food. Had 4 oz of mashed potatoes with a boiled egg only egg white mashed into the potatoes' date=' a Protein shake, tried some tuna in Water with light mayo and couldn't eat it felt like if a bomb just dropped into my stomach, that keeps happening with everything new I try, is this normal?? Feel like I'm not loosing weight at all. Lost 22 pounds the first 10 days but nothing else after that. Please give me any advise I don't know what's happening. I don't eat that much and try to drink as much as I can but I don't know why the weight loss stopped, I'm not consuming not even 800 calories per day. What can be happening??[/quote']

We all have what we call stalls where the scale just won't move. It will pass. Just keep geeting your Protein in. The weight is gonna come off.

It's likely just the shock and trauma of the surgery, calorie deprivation, etc. I'm on purée/mushies as well but I'm only allowed 1-2 Tablespoons per meal for the next 4 weeks!

It may help with stomach pains but if you don't get the calories and Protein you need you will be very fatigued.

      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!
