Why is food ALWAYS involved?!



Recommended Posts

We do a little bit of traveling/ eating in the car too. I love turkey Jerky, Belvita Breakfast biscuits, fresh fruit thats not messy ( sliced apples are my favorite ) wheat thins w/ pb, nuts, dried fruit, raw carrots, cheese sticks, etc. Have fun !

Every time I walk into the kitchen at work and see leftover donuts, Bagels, Cookies, sandwiches, etc., I just look down at my body currently clothed in size 8 slacks and a medium blouse and that's all I need to walk out again without taking a damn thing. I used to be in a size 26 slacks and a 4X blouse. Enough said.

I totally understand what everybody is saying here. It's better right now because it's summer time. I teach at a college and most of the other faculty are not there. But when they are there is constantly food in our breakroom I have to go in there because that's where the copy machine is. And it's not healthy food either it is bags of Cookies and guard ghettos and popcorn and all sorts of things I have attempted in the past to bring in fruit and if it gets eaten but never gets replaced and I cannot afford to keep bringing in fruit. We also have potlucks all the time and 90% of the see you today is brought is not healthy even though everybody that I work with claims to eat healthy. Then every second Sunday is potluck at my church and again people claim to be eating more healthy but that doesn't stop them from piling on the butter bringing any kind of potato dish that they want to you. I'm really not looking forward to church this Sunday.

      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.

      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!
