No, no baby food. Usually, when food gets stuck, a bunch of saliva comes into your mouth which we call slime. This goes on because the body is trying to lubricate the area to get the food to pass. The best thing to do is keep spitting it out, or it will collect in there and make matters worse. The food that is stuck comes up.

the best thing to do is learn to eat right and this won't happen. Take itty bitty (pencil eraser size ) bites and chew until it's liquid in your mouth. If you do this, you should be able to eat just about anything. Most people have the most trouble with bread.< /p>

I eat a lot of chicken, or really any kind of meat, cheese,

yogurt, etc . I stay away from noodles, rice , because white carbs are what causes people to be hungry. If you eat hard Protein, you will be more satisfied for longer times.

      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!
