I am only a few days post -op but for some reason I looked at my allowed list of liquids again. Skimmed milk was on the list! So, I found the NUT's suggestion: 8 oz milk, 1/3 cup dry milk, one envelope of sugar free Carnation Instant Breakfast. Shook it up....it's GOOD! 21 grams per 8 oz. Now, its a lot of Fluid to try to get down and drink Water too, but I'm sipping sipping sipping.....

I have only found the chocolate and vanilla. Their website says they have strawberry as well. Also, I've been adding unflavored Protein powder to this concotion to up the protien as well. :)

      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.

      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!
