I heard no OJ or any citrus for awhile cause it irritates the pouch - something like that. Which I hope changes after awhile cause I like lemon as a seasoning. Anyone else hear this too?

My surgeon didn't say not to drink OJ but it's like a little in the morning & sometimes evening & it's Water down OJ has fithy percent less sugar.

I will be calling my weight center tomorrow as I can't live like this. Water, tea, broth and carnation instAnt Breakfast. I will see if I can have yogurt etc. my center does not want you to eat anything that they have not approved as they know how it effects your system.

Where have you found the Isopure liquid ....and does it taste good ? What favors does anyone recommend?

Coconut Water is allowed in my diet also oranges not orange juice just don't swallow white stuff. Even if coconut water has 15 grams of sugar I drink it because it helps me with keep hydrated

The Isopure Protein drink tastes kinda like filmy Gatorade. It kinda coats my tongue. But it's not a bad taste. It is tolerable. They are best cold cold cold and so far I have tried the fruit punch one and the blue raspberry. The fruit punch is not very sweet, the blue raspberry is very sweet. My taste buds apparently changed following surgery and I don't like super sweet things right now... So I don't care for the blue raspberry. I also have mango peach to try. I only purchased them for my 1 week of clear liquid diet following surgery which I am almost done with. They are quite expensive (over $5.00 for 1 20 oz bottle) but they were better tasting than my Body Fortress Cookies and Cream mixed with Water ( MAJOR YUCK!) They can be purchased at GNC. My GNC let me purchase 3 individual bottles in 3 different flavors (they had to open cases to let me do this) but I didn't want a whole case of them. 12 bottles is more than 1 full month of ALL my Celebrate Vitamins, Iron and Calcium. Yikes! Good luck finding something you enjoy.

      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!
