The only stage I remember well is the liquids. Lol nothing much to it. Just liquids lol.

For me it was 2 weeks Clear Liquids, 2 weeks full liquids (protein shakes, milk, yogurt and clear liquids) and finally 2 weeks pureed foods.

You really don't need to go back that far. Basically the rules are:

to eat Proteins first (lean meats, seafood, cheese, nuts, legumes, eggs, dairy, etc.) I don't know how far out you are, but at one year I can eat 4 oz. of dense Protein when I eat very slowly. Yogurt obviously goes down easier. Protein should be between 70-90 grams a day.

Fills the edges with vegetables (not starchy) and low glycemic fruits. pineapple, berries and cantaloupe is good.

Finally if any room, eta some healthy carbs like quinoa or whole grain things. I keep my carbs under 25% of my total intake. It comes out to something like 45 grams a day. This is what worked for me:

Protein: 50%

Carbs: 25%

Fat 25%

Use My Fitness Pal or some other program and document everything you eat. Also drink your Water (72 oz. a day) and take your Vitamins.

Agree with Catracks, you don't need to go back all the way to the beginning. Be sure you are getting your Water for sure. That helps a lot. You could also try Diva's bootcamp. I think many people have had luck breaking stalls and carb addictions with it.

By using LilMissDiva's Basic Bootcamp, it helped with the sugar cravings and within 2 days I would drop a lb. It may have been Water retention, but I'll take it. Have a great day!

      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!
