My surgeon said a couple are ok and they are helpful when my stomach is not so happy, but others are allowed no crackers, bread, etc.

I was told crackers and pretzels are "slider" foods. You know they slide right through your pouch without giving you any type of full sensation. They are on my foods not recommended list as well. (List given to me by nutritionist)

I wasn't allowed any bread or crackers until five weeks post-op. When you can eat them, you might want to try Kashi Pita Crisps. I've had the 7 Grain Sea Salt and the Zesty Salsa. Both are 120 cals, 11 crisps per serving, 3g of Protein and 22g of carbs. I enjoy crunchy and these crackers are very crunchy. I eat them with all kinds of things and they really are quite tastey!

i made the mistake of trying one of my daughters goldfish crackers. Went down so easy. Problem is they are addictive! Get them away from me!

I had 1-2 no more honest. I have self control. I see it all day long & look and I don't get that urge to attack and eat it. That was like a once in a life time thing. I don't attack the chips neither. I'm not keeping it out of the house. The Kids should enjoy some junk. They eat vey 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.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        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!
