Protein question



Recommended Posts

I am 4 1/2 weeks out, down 40 pounds and have a Protein question. I am still on soft food and nutritionist said as long as I can mash it in my mouth, I can eat it. I had a piece of veggie burger yesterday and Turku burger today. Could not finish my serving either time and I had to stop and walk around to get burps out. I am thinking they were too dry? Anyone have this happen?

Veggie Burger certainly not a soft food .. Your body is telling u it is not ready for that. I had to stay on soft foods longer till my body was able to handle something like a veggie or tofu burger.

I tried to advance my diet too quickly b/c I was tolerating softs so well... I wasn't ready either. I am going to continue on a soft diet until I can't stand it anymore.

      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?
