Eating after surgery



Recommended Posts

I’m in my 3rd week post op VSG and I could go all day without eating, I don’t feel hungry at all. I do eat the soft diet 3 times a day because I know I have to and I try to get the 64 oz of fluids in too. Does anyone else have this issue. It’s not a no appetite thing it’s just I don’t feel hungry.

I feel the same way!!! I was sleeved 8/22. Soft food but I barely get any food and it's kept me dehydrated at times.

I was like that until yesterday. Today I don't seem to feel full for long period of time.

Or even after just two spoonfuls I am so full I start burping up food... Hester it was so bad I was in bed all day. Does anyone else feel that way

I don’t feel bad at all, just not hungry. I’m still sore on my right side but I had a large hematoma on that side. When I am full I do start burping up food though.

I wish I didn't feel hungry all day. I'm 3 weeks out too. I eat a few spoonfuls. I could eat a bit more, but I don't. You probably was sleeved tighter than me. [emoji4]

Me too. I get a few bites here and there.

I'm the same way. A few bites at a time throughout the day. It's weird because I feel like I have eaten way too much because sometimes I just eat 2 or 3 bites every couple of hours. It feels like I eat all the time on those days.

I am almost 4 weeks out and I am always hungry.
I was starving the day after surgery.
I guess everyone is different.
I have lost 23 pounds since surgery.

Great job! I weighed sometime last week and lost 21 lbs, I think. When does the stall happen? I'll be on the look out for that.

I have been going through that also, I had to set a reminder on my phone to eat, I am 4 months out, you have to eat, if not you won't get any nutrients, and your hair will fall out a lot.

      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!
