First off, don't eat and drink at the same time, even if you "can", drinking while eating flushes the food through your pouch. Just stop that habit right now, go back to the waiting 30 mins after eating to drink.

You've provided no other information, we don't know your daily calorie count, Water intake, etc etc etc.

But from what you've said, your surgery worked just fine, you've just stopped working with your surgery.
Time to get back on the horse and start following the instructions you were originally provided. If you are unsure, call your surgical team and follow up with them, you should be doing that anyway as you really should have done your 1 year follow up blood work at this point.

Very encouraging. I just went through the information stage. I am a little sccared. I want to loose 150 lbs. What is your best advise.

Curious, why was my post funny/laughable?

Very likely a mistake

Maybe... but maybe not... we'll have to see if they take the time to bother to answer.

Shewww! For a second I thought IIIIIII was the one who clicked on the laughy emoji! :) And I'd do it only cuz I'm used to you crackin' me up--so it's reflexive. :D

      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!
