Surgery on the March 5th - could only eat 2 tablespoons of broth and 1/4 popsicle. Wasnt expecting to do much more. This morning, ate 5 tablespoons broth, 1/2 popsicle and 1/4 Jello. I am just not pushing it, dont want to throw up. Drank a 20 oz bottle of Water over sbout 14 hours...doctors are happy :)

Quinn! I could not keep ANYTHING down, not even 1oz of Water for 3 days after surgery... just keep trying a little at a time. I am at 2 weeks and 3 days now and can tell you, it does get better... just a little slower for some of us :)

My doctor would not discharge me until I drank 36oz of Water and it was only 2 days after surgery but I did it and went home. I am now on day 6 and each day I can handle more and more.

Today I feel better. Thanks for all the replies. I'm able to keep a little more down. I love Sonic ice! It stays down. Still afraid to try Protein Drink. Any suggestions?

Isopure isn't that bad for my taste buds, a friend of mines bought a couple and did not like the taste and gave em to me, its not that bad its sweet n it does have a weird signature i guess after taste lol.. so far i have tried their banana pine apple mango , and this red one i think its raspberry strawberry or something,, ur just going to drink something after wards n brush ur tongue because it makes ur mouth dry.. n tongue feel icky.. but loving the Protein content.

I think I'm going to try using the Isopure Protein Drinks to make Protein Jello. Has anyone tried this yet? How did it come 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!
