You know I still struggle with what and what not to eat. My best days is oatmeal (1 Cup) for Breakfast with raisins and honey with a cup of TAZO Green Tea. Healthy huh! Then I eat really lean the rest of the day also. This goes on for a few days yet i return to my Spanish food bonanzas. Yeah I can still eat most anything especially with liquid preferably a magaritta so this has been whay it has taken me so long to lose and also what holds me up. I am posting this ticker and telling you all this in an effort to make progress. I have to stay out of these Resturaunts! :chinese

After 4 fills I sometimes feel like I should go for another yet I am reluctant because I think I am in a good place. I am capable of eating very little and going on it for a while if I choose to do so. Maybe I need to eliminate the choices huh? Isnt that why I am here in the first place? I intend to try until 4/1/05 an dif I dont make progress I will get a little adj. like .5cc. I hope I do not have to. I am very physical as in running and weightlifting yet my body fights to stay at or around 230lbs.

I know, quit whining and get to work, Anyone share this dilema?

Bobby, I'm right there with you!!! I struggle with types of food and portion size every time I eat. I have only had restriction for one week and had to fight like hell to finally get it. I feel like I could have just a tad more fill and would be at my sweet spot, but like you, I am going to give it a little time to see if I can learn how to work with what I have.

      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.

      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!
