I think I'm not realizing when I'm full and I'm going too far. I measured all the food I'm taking to work today. And I puréed chili in the food processor. Maybe something thinner will go down better.

Yeah, thinner food is better, good luck.

Just an FYI- I found an App for counting my Protein. It cost $3.99, but so far its worth it for me.

I've been using My Fitness Pal but ignoring how many calories it thinks I should eat.

Thanks. Hope it works out. Have some cottage cheese for lunch and the chili for dinner. Figure I can't under chew those.

It's called Protein Track. It has a red background with a man showing muscles. I wish it had a scanner for food, but it does let you create a food so you can add anything you can't find.

I am 2 and a half weeks out. I started food on Monday. So far everything is going well. I am not really good at guessing if I am full or not. I just stick to weighing everything.

Ok. I think if I burp, I'm full. I ate about 1/4 cup of cottage cheese and diced peaches. Burped. Stopped. Feel full but not uncomfortable like I have in the past.

So much for that. The 1/4 cup total of cottage cheese mixed with peaches? Yeah. That came back up. So, so far, I can eat scrambled eggs and yogurt. What the hell did I do to myself? I just wanna cry.

That is exactly how I felt yesterday. Yesterday was 6 days post op for me. My surgery was the 12th. I think my body is just not bouncing back as quickly as others. Mine was a revision surgery so I am chalking it up to that. Today is a bit better but I am still not completely on my game. I just feel off and a little tired and blah

That sounds delicious! Sorry you felt bad but the recipe sounds yummy. I'm usually a good cook but I have been getting hung up on the whole purée thing.

      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!
