Would love to hear any tips anyone has on eating post op and the liquid diet & what worked for you!!!

I'm May 16th too. Make sure you have liquids avaiable to you when you get home. I've been told that Water is the most important thing right after surgery. Don't let yourself get dehydrated. I have powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury chicken soup/protein powder, Atkins shakes and some baby food jars ready for me when I get back home.

Best wishes!

Me too on the 16th. I ordered one container of each of the Unjury Protein powders after nutritionist gave me samples to try. I also bought every flavor of unsweetened Jello they had and several flavors for Water, even though I love water. My daughter has helped me so much since she has already been through it 4 years ago. She was sleeved and lost 165 pounds in about 2 years. I really like the unjury chicken Soup flavored Protein Drink because it's one you drink warm. I took one whole cabinet for my drink stuff. When you get to mushy or purreed if you do mashed potatoes use beef or chicken instead of water or milk. adds flavor. Good luck everyone and if we don't talk again before, catch you over the weekend or next week and we can share stories!

      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.
