Hi- I see that everyone has different foods they are allowed to start with- but how many grams of Protein are you supposed to get each day? My dr says 60 grams (3 weeks post op). What about you? What of you get 70-80 in? Is that ok??

My doctor told me 64 grams. I'm sure more won't hurt. What are you doing to get 70-80 grams. I have trouble trying o get 64.

Stuff like Ground turkey.. Fat free refried beans- turkey breast with fat free gravy- pure protie pre-made choc shakes (23 grams). Syntrax strawberry mousse shake with skim milk (30 grams). Hormel turkey chili.. I can have fruit/veggies for a few more weeks- so it's all protein..

Wow. I just started eggs and I get about 45grams of Protein. It is hard the doctor wants me at 60grams. I just do not feel like I am hungry.

I drink one Protein Drink for Breakfast which is 75 grams of Protein. Then thru out the day I try to only eat protein. I try to stay away from empty calories. I will have an egg, an oz. Of cheese, meat or nutts. I usually get in well over 80 grams but I am 16 weeks out already. Goodluck to you guys!

No, they have Isopure powder at the GNC store. Tons of flavors! 50 grams of Protein per serving, which is 2 scoops. But i mix 3 scoops (75grams) with icy cold Water. It's really good. I finally found one I can tolerate ツ

      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!
