I have not been much of a TV watcher, but being on leave from surgery I am watching much more. Holy crap, COULD THERE BE ANY MORE food COMMERCIALS ON TV! It's maddening for head hunger. I want everything on the tv, even stuff I know I would never eat. I might have to resort to Netflix or streaming on demand.

rant over now, lol

oh my gosh its the worst ever! I remember when I was just a week out from surgery, still on the liquid/soft diet and I went to the gas station to fill my car. On the billboard was a picture of this nasty gas station cheeseburger and I would have eaten that damn cardboard sign if my husband would have let me! Holy cow, head hunger is real and a HORRIBLE thing! lol

Good luck!!!! :)

I don't watch the commercials. Somehow I just block them out and don't pay attention.

Ha-- I'm so glad I'm not alone! I started madly wanted Taco Bell when I saw commercials for it and I normally HATE Taco Bell.

My husband was amused.

And, yes, Netflix was a good way to go. I would say books, but the people in my books keep having feasts and then I get mad at them, 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.

        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!
