I am moving to puréed foods tomorrow. Does anyone have any suggestions as to the best way to transition? What are the best foods to start with or the worst?

Also, if anyone has my fitness pal I would love for you to add me. My username is hek1127.

I'm not aloud egg or cheese until soft food stage which is two more weeks... Kinda stinks because I was hoping for an egg today.

How far are people walking and how often?

I am walking about 30 mins twice a day. I don't judge how far I go, I just try to keep moving that long. Yesterday was the only day I didn't get in an hour. I am one week post op tomorrow.

HELP!!!!! Since I woke up from surgery I have been itching uncontrollably...it hasn't been my incisions so much as all around & my upper thigh...@ first I though it was a reaction to coming off all the meds but it seems to be getting worse & I'm breaking out in these red blotches... The only time it subsides is if I take Benadryl but I can't take this forever!! Has anyone else had this issue? I placed a call in & waiting for a response but I'm one step away from googling & then there is no telling how freaked out I will get!! Please if anyone has any experience with this or advice I would greatly appreciate it!!

Could be the pain meds..ask what they are giving you..

I've been walking three times a week I know I need to do more but this is all I can do right now three weeks until surgery.

You all are doing well with the walking, in 3 weeks out, I don't walk much, however, I am constantly found up and down stairs, that's my exercise.

      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!
