I was trying to increase the Protein amount of my Unjury shake, so I added 2 tsp. of regular Skippy Peanut Butter. I've already gotten most of it down, but it's not agreeing with me. My guess is that the sugar and/or fat in the pb is causing the problem. I'm only 2 weeks out. Anyone have any insight?

You're probably right in that your pouch isn't ready for it yet. Are you on soft foods yet? I'd give it a couple more weeks and try again, maybe with Natural Skippy or one with less sugar.

I did the same thing very shortly after post op. I've tried it a few times afterwards and I can tell u for me now I am unable to tolerate Peanut Butter. I've gotten so sick from it to where now I totally have a food aversion and the thought of putting it in my mouth gives me shivers. Totally diff than how I was pre op. I never met a food I didn't like pre op. I've developed a few things now and some real aversions.

Have you tried PB2? ? It is a powdered Peanut Butter found on the shelf by regular peanut butter. I add 1-2T to my chocolate Protein Powder and it tastes like Reese's.

Sounds like I just need to stay away from Peanut Butter for the time being. It tasted so good when I licked the spoon. Bummer!

I have had the dried Peanut Butter, but it was years ago. May need to get another jar. Anyone know where to buy it other than online. Last time, I think I had to buy 6 jars and I'm not sure I want to do that.

I've never tried it with yogurt. Sounds interesting.

PB2 is awesome! All the flavor, none of the sugar and fat. Great product and a perfect way to get the flavor (and Protein boost) you want without the things you don't want. If your local stores don't have it try a health food store or dietary supplement store. I'm sure you could even buy it online.

      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!
