I'm a huge fan of all greek yogurt. I try to watch the sugar and fat content. My fave is plain or vanilla yogurt mixed with fresh or frozen fruits. I have the Chobani Apple and Cinnamon fat free for desert often. I also discovered the Yoplait Greek 100 calorie greek yogurts. They're lower calories and have less sugar than Chobani and taste pretty darn good.

Beef Jerky is also a snack I enjoy often. My personal fave is Perky Jerky.

​Anyone have any snack ideas also for someone who is 3 weeks out (still on pureed) too? I am so done with yogurts, applesauce and Protein shakes :(. I can't wait until I am able to snack on those things when I'm 6 months out.

When I want a little something I have a wedge of 35 calorie cheese on a couple of lo fat crackers. It's only around 100 cals and quite filling.

This is gonna sound strange, I admit it.

I plan my food, and do not snack unless on the plan (I am an addict).

When I get a craving, I drink Water. Helps me feel full for a little while!

Sometimes if I have a higher calorie day and feel like having something in the the evening I have a low sugar hot cocoa made with Water. It is about 25 calories and satisfies that sweet craving. Also sipping something hot takes awhile and can curb your appetite.

Have you tried Dannon Light and Fit Greek yogurt? Great flavors (my favorite is pineapple) and only 80 calories.

My favorite snack is carrot chips and Protein dip. Carrot chips are carrots sliced like crinkle cut potato chips, I find them next to the baby carrots in my produce dept. I make protein dip by mixing a container of low fat cottage cheese, my favorite dip mix (ranch, French onion, etc) and a little bit of milk or sour cream all in the food processor until smooth.

How is the beef Jerky on your sleeve? It sounds great but I am worried I might not tolerate it.

7 weeks out; no problems with Jerky. I carry a package of turkey jerky in my car for emergency meals!

Pacific Gold Teriyaki Turkey Jerky (Costco), Old Wisconsin Turkey Sausage Bites (Walmart), almonds are my favorite but almost all nuts are healthy (watch the portion size - they are high in calories), yogurt, cottage cheese, Decaf coffee, fresh cauliflower, broccoli and/or carrots (love the idea above for making your own dip from cottage cheese!), just about any kind of fruit (have to be a little careful with the sugar - I dumped once on red grapes), cantaloupe, honeydew melon, pineapple, Quaker Popped Rice Cakes (they come in sweet and savory flavors) - Snacks do not have to be synonymous with unhealthy!

      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!
