Opti fast! Check out nutrient labels. Not great post op but pre op it is the weigh (haha) to go. It is ok after a few weeks post op, but not in the liquid stage. Yes to diet jelly, diet cordial, sugar free lollies and icy poles. Yes to veggies except root veggies like potatoes. Opti fast has a great website to help.

Check out great ideas in nutrition, portion perfection for bands and sleeves. They have a website.

For liquid stage-- resource Protein by Nestlé. 20g Protein in 200mL serve. I split them in half and then sip sip sip the first few days. coffee flavor I liked best :) the sustagen and up n go products gave me diahrea, so resource it was.

Pm me your email address and I will try to scan and email the hospital dietitians advice as I found it most helpful.

What else?

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      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.
