help failure and has any one had herina after



Recommended Posts

Hi everyone:

Well let me say I feel like a failure. I was sleeved on 2/29/2013 weight about 272 did ok in first 1/2 year. about 52 lbs. Then I lost conrol with eating and could eat just like before surgery. and I have gained about 20 back. Now they found a herina that I have and going to fix it this wednesday. Which is odd, they fixed one when they went in and did the sleeve. but seems have one again. Has anyone had this? or surgery after the sleeve. Not sure how I will feel know doc said liquids for about 6-8 weeks. hoping it will help get my small tummy back. but not sure that can happen. I talked with about a revision but want to wait for herina to be fixed and see if we can get me back on track. Are there others that have stuggled like this? and how did you get back on track? If you had suregery for herina how long on liguids? and How did you feel after? did it help with not wanting to eat so much? I need help, and guess reaching out. Please advise me . thank you so much.

Mary

I am struggling with weight gain and it's been almost 3 years :( ! I was considering a re sleeve but not sure how risky it is ! And hernia's can keep happening depending on where they are located and the pressure on she weakened muscle and tissue ! What have u figured out about the weight gain ??

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
