I tried some tiny couscous and my little stomach said - No No No!

Yes - It felt like there was a cinder block on my chest. Not good. It has been the first food that did not work as expected. If you are on mushies or about to start mushies - stay away. Tiny couscous is no mushy! Bad feeling.

What amazes me is some folks who were banded the same day as many of us have tried stuff like DONUTS! First I think why? Now tat I had the cinder block moment, I really questioning it - I mean what the heck are they thinking? Yuck.

Tex, I am still on full liquids until Saturday. I had 3 days Clear Liquids, then 2 weeks full liquids, then 2 weeks of mushies. I'll still be on mushies when I go back for my first fill. The only thing I have eaten that was really not on my full liquid plan was Tomato Soup (they said it was too acidic, but it was so good!) and once I mixed quite a bit of Fat Free Sour Cream in with some refried Beans. I guess I thought this made it smoothe enough to qualifiy as a full liquid (a huge stretch, I know). Otherwise, I have stuck to the plan. I am too scared to try anything off the plan. I'm with you on the donuts...this was too big of a step for me to take a chance and mess it up now and donuts are probably not even on the plan later on (Darn!). Good luck and keep up the great work!

Hey Amanda - I read it on some thread. Sorry I can't remember where. I was amazed. I think the thread was something like I cheated or tripped or something.

      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!
