I feel the best when I just do stuff! I went to church and the grocery today, 4 days post op! Now...I was tired when I got home and took a 2 hour nap! I think it is just because I can't eat much. I might get 2oz at a time in! Plus...I used to like yogurt and pudding...yeah...not now!!

I'm on week 3, and I'm struggling to eat.

I feel a tightness in my stomach, it hurts when I eat and drink. I feel like there's an obstruction.

Has anyone felt that before?

PS : I did made the mistake of trying mash potatoes last week, after that, everything has gone down hill..

Any advise?

Hey! I don't feel bad. I'm. It in pain and not throwing up or anything. I just get full in like 1 spoonful! I can drink without any problem now. That is my savior! I drink and put Protein in everything I drink. I want to eat...just nothing I'm allowed to eat. Ha! I haven't cheated or anything...just struggling.

I am 17 days post op. It does get better. Hang in there. Let you body heal and do the very best you can. Make sure you are walking. I'm amazed but that seems to be the key to every thing!

I'm 21 days post op. Each day gets better. I even said I wanted to go to work. WTH!! Lol. Ok I was bored. Lol. I can get my liquids in. I can't stomach the Protein drinks. My doctor told me that if I can get it in thru food(thank goodness I'm on soft foods) that it's ok. Other than that everything thing is good

The challenge is real!!!! I am so full, I am forcing myself to eat, but I can hardly get anything in. I'm still using the 1 ounce cups to help me gauge my food/liquid consumption, and so far I'm not getting much in. :( HELP!!!! what can I do?

      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!
