Hi Saddie

I am also one that hates Soups. But ofter the surgery, I struggle with dehydration. So I learned to love Soup now. I do not like bland food so I would spice up the soup which really helped a lot. It also helped me with my dehydration too.

When you say Fluid stage, I am assuming you mean full liquids, which means you can have things that aren't clear.

My surgeon only allowed us to have things at that stage that could pass through a strainer. I love Soup so it was good for me.

As for something that would taste more like a meal, that is going to be hard. I had a friend that drained all the liquid out of Bean & Bacon soup and heated that up to drink. I did that as well and even added some HIckory Bacon flavored salt. It was ok but not ideal. I stuck more to yogurts, puddings, Jello and SF popsicles in addition to my Protein drinks.

      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.

      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.
