Starting liquid diet and don't know where to go



Recommended Posts

I started my diet today from my surgeon with two Protein Shakes a day and a small dinner Protein and vegetables and I'm still really hungry and I was not sure if anyone else is going through this. I'm finding that I am drained and very tired and very emotional anybody have any suggestions or guidance? My surgery is February 28 so I still have a while to go but I believe I will be on a liquid only diet for two weeks. How did anybody make the transition?

I'm finding it hard for me to get the food in cause im not really hungry and now it's late at night and I'm starving

DOnt do the special k, slimfast, boost drinks. too much sugar will limit weight loss. folks on a fast have horrible attitudes! the lack of Protein will will keep u hungry, Atkins worked for me! I also like body fortress (walmart) whey Protein Powder mixed with milk. easy, filling, great! even if you have 5 shakes a day. til u get the hang of things.

      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.

      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!
