I had surgery may 20... I just can't seem to eat enough I can't even eat my Protein amount. I'm never hungry when I do eat it not very much fruit and stuff like that make me sick Pasta no good which is probably a good thing. But I can't seem to stomach a lot Protein Shakes I can't stomach them tried Protein Bars are way to sweet as well... I tried beef jersey and peanuts cause protein I just don't know what to do its stressing me out like after 3 bites if anything I'm done please help

We had he same surgery date! Definitely try the unsweetened protein or unjury protein. Those are much better than the Special K because they have more protein. 20 grams per serving. Have u tried eggs? tuna? There is a broth from Unjury that has a chicken flavor and it has protein as well.

Exactly! you have to take care of yourself. Try the liquids, they might help. Make sure you take all of your Vitamins too!

Also try double pasteurized egg whites. You can add them to any drink and it does not change the flavor of the drink. One pump is 3G of Protein. I will take a power aid and add 5 pumps which turns a 0g Protein Drink to a 15g protein drink.

      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!
