I'm guessing you're on an all liquid diet. I can tell you with my [tenuous] medical knowledge it's probably fine. The main point of this diet is to shrink your liver. Besides, cottage cheese is probably one of the better choices you could have made, if it makes you feel better. Don't dwell on it and just focus on and try to stick to the diet for the rest of the week until surgery. It's coming up soon, good luck!

I also am not qualified to give medical advice, but I don't see how at over a week to go before surgery some cottage cheese is going to do any damage...every surgeon is different...mine didn't require any kind of pre-op diet

I would think as long as its Protein and you didnt eat a thousand calories worth I would think your ok. Please I am a trainwreck with this liquid diet and its only day one.

Shame! SHAME! The cottage cheese society of America does not condone cheating! Especially if it were in an Olympic cottage cheese weaving leg race.

      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.

        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!
