Driver - how far out are you? I've had 2 small vacations since having surgery & would be glad to give you some tips. Can you give a bit more information?

Have you tried ... Pepperoni sticks, beef Jerky, cans of tuna salad, etc?

if you have found a powdered Protein drink that you like, or at least tolerate, lol - you could take that on the plane and get either Water or milk from the flight attendents to mix it. I always bring my own travel cup.

I also use Atkins bars - they are more filling than you might expect.

good luck!

Well, I haven't had the oppotrunity to travel yet but soon I'm going to Texas for my neices wedding. I'm really just dropping a note to say good for you !!! You had a rough start and I'm so glad to see that your feeling good enough to be out and about...... winning loads of money etc...

I'm a little nervous about this wedding. My family doesn't know about surgery and I don't want them to. I will be there for 3 days... hopefully it will be too chaotic for my mother or sisters to notice I don't really eat any more.

I am vactioning in las vegas. Iam doing good I have been able to find things to eat and find Protein supplements. I am still nervous about complications but the facts are I'm doing great. Because I went my GP last week and my blood work was great. The mind can play stupids tricks on you if you let it.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
