I just started pureed foods, and my surgery was on the 16th. So far I have tried; egg, swiss cheese, applesauce, canned chicken with light mayo and salsa. I bought a can of the chunky Soup that has potatoes and beef. I'm going to puree that and try it.

are you lifting over 10 pounds yet? I've picked my son up a couple of times out of necessity. He's 25 lbs.

Did you go from clear liquid to puree? No full liquids?

Call your surgeons office. When was your surgery. When in doubt, call.

so far I'm having no issues with lifting him. I try to keep him away from my boo boo. It's mainly getting him out of the crib. I kind of have 0 motivation today. The idea of even making a Protein Shake makes me tired lol. I might go make some Cookies for my child, only because I can turn the oven on and I am pretty cold today.

I'm starting to wonder how big my pouch is. I pureed a cup of Soup and never did I get full. I prob ate 3/4 of cup of it. Maybe because it was pureed?

Went from having a good amount of energy to none over the last few days... Ugh. Just dragging... Perhaps it has all caught up with me! And I gained a few pounds... I am taking that as just part of the cycle... Tomorrow will be a better day. I will stop complaining now... Just because I am too tired B-)

Yeah and trying to find a pill container to find them all is a joke too.

      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!
