veggie woes



Recommended Posts

This is gonna sound ridiculous but I really miss veggies. I feel like there just isn't any room in my diet for plants. I eat a veggie burger for dinner just to feel like I am getting some plants in my diet. Anybody else feeling this way?

Trust me, it's not ridiculous! I have always been a huge veggie fan! I am with madam...I want a huge salad with all the fixings!! And it's sweet potato season! OMG I want one sooo bad...well technically I had one, but could only eat a tiny bit of it!! URGH.

I am 8 weeks tomorrow, and I too feel like I do not get enough veggies in, I focus on protien then after that I am full. I try to have a lil spinach, or green Beans with dinner, but I am so worried about Protein intake I make that first priority. I hope I will be able to eat more eventually.

How about chopped salad? It was easier to get my veggies in that way when I had my band!

The issue is that space in my tummy is valuable real estate now and it seems to be an all Protein neighborhood! I picked up some vegan Protein shakes today which ima try to sandwich my day with so I can at least fill one meal with veggies. I'm a vegetarian and the whey Protein, cheese, yogurt, eggs and tofu diet is starting to make me sick! I'm only 2.5 months out.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      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?
