i was hungry for two weeks after my surgery.. maybe a little more. i wasnt eatting food. just drinking fluids and shakes. i was starving! but once i introduced my new stomach to pureed foods and then eventually solids, now the hunger for me is gone.

Also remember that often hunger is not hunger but stomach acid very common issue After surgery I went on medication and the hunger stopped as it was not hunger but acid

although what shell was saying above is correct, even after i was on medicication for stomach acid, i was still hungry. but it went away. and thats awesome though.. 60 pounds!! everyone has their own journey.. youll reach your goals eventually :)

      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!
