What Your Diet And Exercise Will Look Like Following The Procedure



Recommended Posts

What your diet and exercise will look like following the procedure. I am having the sleeve. I want to set up a menu plan. I don't cook so it has to be very easy meals.

And what kind of exercise and when did you started to exercise after the surgery.

I do zumba, strength weights, yoga, machines, I was going all five days and then I stopped for # months and went back on my birthday on nov 8th then stopped again and been back 3 days.

Do you all have menus or a list of food that he eat all the time, like a set eating plan.

Thanks

I'm a month out and I try to have a "real" meal at 7am 1pm and 6pm with Snacks in between. No gym for another 2-4 weeks for me.

Todays meal plan:

wake - Water with pills

7 - cream of wheat with unjury stirred in

10 - 1-2oz egg salad

1 - 1-2oz cubed chicken from a previous nights dinner

3 - 1-2oz cottage cheese

6 - not sure. some kinda meat with a little vegetable

9 - snack - cottage cheese or maybe a SF ice pop if im low on my liquids

In between im drinking Water with some crystal light in it. And i have a Cocotein form Isopure open in the fridge if im low on Protein. I kinda wing it based on how it's going. My goal right now is to work more solid meats in and to really focus on feeling "satisfied" and not get to "full".

I'm just over 2 weeks out.

Exercise is walking, walking and more walking. I'm not cleared for other exercise at this point. Walking is a great way to recover!

For meals, I'm on the pureed stage, so this is what my day looked like yesterday:

Morning - scrambled egg or 1/4 cup oatmeal or cream of wheat

mid-morning - Protein shake

lunch - ground turkey (about 1/8 cup) w/ 2 tablespoons of refried Beans topped w/ salsa and greek yogurt

mid-afternoon - Protein Shake

dinner - finely diced chicken and cooked broccoli (pureed)

Evening snack - Protein Shake

My doc wants 80 grams of Protein minimum - so I will require 3 shakes for the foreseeable future. I can't eat enough to get in much protein, but it's nice to eat food.

I will warn you - at this stage, getting in all your requirements feels like a full-time job. I am constantly looking at the clock because you can't drink 30 minutes before or 30 minutes after a meal or shake. It gets cumbersome. But, every time I think it's annoying and OMG, I can't take it anymore...I look in the mirror or step on the scale and I see a difference. Totally worth it!!!!

Good luck.

      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!
