I do, I wasn't losing weight but gaining weight so me and my Nut decided I needed to try something I knew how to do, well that was my words and she agreed so Now I eat healthy choice, smart ones, lean cusine, I can only eat a little more then half depending on how big that certain dinner is. But I dont think its making a difference I have dropped only a couple pounds in this last week since I started, if by the end of this week I don't lose anything I'm thinking about seeing my surgeon. Sorry I went on and on I'm just having a hard time with having this major surgery and very little weight loss.

I could eat them, but avoid them because most are loaded with simple starches (rice, noodles, potatoes, etc), and light on Protein. The salt content is also typically quite high.

I ate them pre op all the time ... Now I keep my carbs below 40 and they dont work in my plan. When my carbs are high I am hungry, have cravings, and dont lose weight. You will deff lose weight with low calorie but you will lose weight quickly with low carb. I wanted to be at my goal weight yesterday so I am following the 600 to 800 calories/less then 40 carbs/more then 60 prot/min 64 oz Fluid. I know each doctor is diffrent and every nut has their own suggestion. I am a mexico sleever and didnt like my doctors post op plan. He basically didnt have restrictions on carbs or calories. I am followingg the eating plan that a lot of the successful vets on here used. It is working for me. I have lost 122 lbs in about 5 1/2 months! Best of luck to you. I hope you find a plan that works for you!

Seems like you're doing great! 122 in 5.5 months is amazing. We have similar eating plans (even though im not hitting each goal every day) and I was just wondering what your exercise is like if you don't mind my asking.

      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.

        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!
