Six weeks out I was down about 50 lbs. I was only eating cream of mushroom Soup - about 3/4 can a day and drinking my Protein shakes. I wasn't able to tolerate any other foods except sugar free popsicles and sugar free jell-o. I could nibble on boiled eggs, but it was less than a teaspoon full every once in a while. I had a 1/2 cup container filled with my egg salad mix and it took about 2 days to get it all down.

I was deliriously happy I was eating so little.

I'm 7 weeks out, and at 6 weeks I had lost about 26 lbs since surgery. I'm also eating eggs, grilled chicken, brussels sprouts, turkey slices, cheese, tuna fish. I am able to eat all kinds of things, just small amounts. I also stay away from breads and white carbs of all kinds.

I've ate white chicken chili with gluten free cornbread ,taco's, Omelets with, ham, taco meat (left over from dinner the night before) along with some of the fixin's and cheese .Broccoli cheese Soup. Meat loaf. Quiche with turkey, ham or just cheese and veggies. Today I try'd bbq pork Jerky as a snack.. (it was heaven) Turkey meatballs with cream of mushroom soup. Turkey meatballs with 0 calories, 0 sugar ect dressing. Tonight I made a recipe I found on here for cheesy meatballs (3 oz) and try'd steamed carrots (1 oz) total 4 oz. didn't even finish my meal. 2 bites of meat left and 2 of carrots. Also tuna fish and crackers. It was a great feeling knowing I had our tool to stop me from eating until I puke!

I actually don't remember where I was at 6 weeks out, but I was on soft foods. I ate a lot of refried Beans ... LOL

I actually have a YouTube cooking show with my mom, and this weeks episode is about exactly that!! Here's a link if you're interested:

      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!
