Nuts and greek yogurt worked well for me. Put the nuts in little serving baggies so not to get carried away. Almonds were my fav.

1 oz cheese? I too like the greek yogurt and have one at work almost always. Nuts, a Protein bar-watch the sugars....

Good luck!

Laughing cow cheese wedges don't have a ton of Protein, but are awesome with crackers. Some of the South Beach bars are pretty good and have protein with out a ton of calories. One of the ways that is easy to add protein to your diet and really helpls me is unflavored Unjury. I can add the powder to drinks, casseroles, anything really and it ups my protein without an off taste.

I like weight watchers smoked string cheese. 6g Protein, 50 calories. Cause it is string, I eat it really slow & enjoy every bit.

I was told to avoid nuts because of the far content. But I do love almonds.

Greek yogurt, low fat granola, all natural Peanut Butter or any natural nut butter with whole wheat crackers ( I enjoy the Special K crackers or Reduced fat wheat thins), berries, banana, home made parfait, home made trail mix with dried fruit/nuts/low sodium pretzels/raisins or a combo of your favorite low fat/low cal items. Pita crisp(I love Stacey's brand) with hummus.

Hope this helps a little :)

All of the above plus I like turkey pepperoni and turkey Jerky. The Jerky I buy is Jack Links 100 calorie packs and they have 18 grams Protein. Takes a bit of chewing but they get the job done. Turkey pepperoni is 70 calories with 8 grams Protein. Sometimes I'll have a serving of 15 slices with a string cheese (I like sargento reduced fat cheddar) and that keeps me full.

I also add unflavored Protein Powder to things and/or use lemonade flavored powder in my Water after working out.

      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!
