Thought some cold pineapple on a hot day would be refreshing... Not so much. Worst cramping, dumping since surgery. It's crazy what our pouches decide they like and don't like. So far pineapple and cabbage have been the two things that really tore me up. Ouch... Go away tummy cramps!

My Preop Nursepractitioner cautioned me against pineapple- i thought it was for sugar content. She also told me no bananas.

You may not be handling pineapple well not only because of the sugar, but also because of the acid. I love fresh pineapple, but can't eat very much of it because it makes my mouth bleed.

I have no problems with bananas. I put one in my Protein shake for the potassium. Maybe the Protein offsets the sugar?

Feeling so much better. For now will just avoid pineapple all together.

I am only 3 months out, but after the 3 month checkup, I found out that most fruits are not our friends!! This is due to the high sugar content, even though its natural sugar. My nutritionist gave me this order: berries, nuts, bananas, peaches & plums(no skins), citrus, no segment skin, melons and then apples and pineapples. He said not to avoid them, but have them sparingly and you may have a bad reaction to them when you fruit and I try to eat it as often as I can or add it to a shake.< /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!
