A new me & bit frustrated!



Recommended Posts

I am 5 days post op. Feel great - too good I guess. What am I doing wrong because I'm hungry? A few crackers would be delightful!!

Down 30 lbs (5 since surgery) so pleased but I feel tired, sick of Protein Drinks and Soup. No regrets just frustrated!! Anybody tried unflavored Protein added to their Water or soup? Brand? Where to buy? Ugh I love all I'm learning about myself and food but wow anyone who says this is the easy way out of being fat needs a knock on the head!!! No picnic for sure!

I'm 11 days post op and completely understand. I haven't been able to tolerate any milk based Protein drinks. Fortunately, I had bought some unflavored Isopure powder before surgery. It's great. I am getting the majority of my protein from putting it in some Crystal Light right now. Although, I can put a little in my Soups and seem to do ok. You can find the Isopure at GNC and some online retailers. Good Luck! We'll be on mushies before we know it. I can't wait!

Thank you so much!! I feel better knowing someone is feeling the same way.

What does the above comment mean "wrong thread?" Did I offend someone? I'm new at this stuff- thought I started a topic.

Oh well Grubb79 thanks so much! When my pitty party is done I'm off to GNC! You really put some sunshine in my day. ????

I was typing a post and for some reason on my laptop the browser flipped back to this thread while I was typing and the comment for that post went on this thread instead of a different thread. Just a mistake.

      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!
