Finally Frustrates Enough To Post About It



Recommended Posts

I can eat half cup and have been. I eat pretty much same things: Tomato Soup with melted cheese' date=' refried Beans with melted cheese and cottage cheese. I take almost an hour to eat and have never felt "stuffed" because I have an agreement with myself never to puke ( I HATE PUKING). During this last week I had shredded pork and put it in a blender and that was only a few bites- probabaly closer to your 2 ounces. Maybe it's the type of food?

BTW- my stall broke. I'm down 6 More pounds from the stall and continue to lose :). I have such a long way to go though. My clothes fit so much better. I have to admit that I can't wait until I go down a size. Even that seems unattainable :([/quote']

Justine, glad to hear your stall has broken. Do you eat any fruit, grainy bread, Pasta, rice, fats like oliive oil, nuts, avocado or vege? Variety is good and will give you energy and nutrition. Maybe start adding one new thing each day???

Thank you. No I don't eat any of that because I'm still on soft foods. I do get some fats in- sour cream once in awhile. Right now my dad gave me a squash from his garden and as a kid I always said i hated it when in fact i never tried it. So it's in the oven win butter and homemade

Maple Syrup. I probabaly will hate it. I'm picky!

There are lots of soft fruits you can have such as mashed banana, berries etc and why not try porridge as full of fibre and nice and soft. Oat or rice porridge is yummy. Mashed avocado with anything savoury is another way to get fats in. Lots of soft cooked vege including spinach, sweet potato etc should go down. Maybe make a casserole with meat and vege as it all gets soft and yummy.

And don't forget eggs are ok at soft stage....scrambled or poached with soft cooked mushrooms. You may only get in 1/2 cup but yummy and good Protein and nuttition

The smell of eggs can actually cause me to throw up. But thanks :-)

      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!
