I'm tighter in the morning so eggs and stuff don't go down too well for me. I drink my premier nutrition shake (Costco) which has 30 grams of Protein. i like Breakfast foods so on the weekends, I have my shake when I get up and then have a little omelette or some other type of egg dish more towards lunch time. Chobani greek yogurt has 14grams of Protein so that's a good choice too.

I just saw an ad on this site for unjury protein that has no taste. It says you can mix it with anything. That might be an option for you.

I just purchased some Unjury products and tried them. I will be ordering more. unjury also makes a protein cheese sauce that you can pour over eggs or veggies. Very good. It's got 20 g protein per half cup.

salmon, tuna, eggs, turkey breast, greek yogurt. be sure to try to get your Protein by eating not drinking most of the time. we are changing our habits and planning good food choices is part of that.

At this point I'm still required to drink Protein Shakes. But I think reading labels can be very good because you can sometimes boost high Protein items by mixing them with other products. Like sprinkling Koshi on greek yogurt. Or adding some protein cheese to a meat. It just takes experimenting to find the balance.

I really enjoy the Unjury products. Even though they are more expensive than I can get at my local Target they are very good. Plus they have a bigger selection than my store.

I too love the Unjury. I don't want to drink my calories, but being tighter in the morning it's a great way to get breakfast in with a good amount of Protein. If you want to try the unjury, they have a sampler pack with 2 chocolate, 2 vanilla, 2 strawberry, 2 unflavored and 2 chicken broth- good to try before you buy, for sure!!

      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.

        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!
