I find that I have to have sauces or more liquids to get it down!



Recommended Posts

I just got tightened because I wasn't loosing and could eat too much, but I notice I need sauces or more soupy type foods to get it down. I am stuck eating Protein Shakes or Soups most of the time. I eat yogurt or 60 cal puddings, etc. I can get spaghetti and meatballs if I have a lot of sauce. Any ideas for low calorie sauces. Fish is good for me with tarter sauce. I need more variety. I am losing again now, so I don't really want to get loosened, any recommendations??? I need help with my diet please !!!

"Help with OUR diets!" is a daily issue for most of us!

I too need a little slick-um at times to get it from sticking on the way down.

Often I find that I'm eating too fast or not chewing enough on the hard Proteins when that happens.

I really didn't care for Pasta for about 5 years postOp but now have some about once a month.

The issue for me is it's way too easy to go from "one high-carb" to "2 high carbs" to ....oops.....whatt'ya mean my clothes are getting too tight....

Since there is an active and highly researchable online data base of such materials, you could help us all by posting what your study has found. A little slick-um goies a long way. There's a red clam sauce around here somewhere that is low cal and Band friendly, I'll see if I can find it.

Cheers on your journey.

      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.

      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!
