Quick Question - Please help me



Recommended Posts

Hi everyone!

I'm new here, 12 days post-op. Was wondering if someone could answer a quick question for me.

My dietician has said I can start on my purée phase on Saturday including having mushy scrambled eggs. My favourite scrambled eggs include fresh chives.

My question is - is there a chance the chives could get caught in my staples?

I would hate to do anything to make myself sick and I forgot to ask the dietician.

Can anyone offer any advice?

Thank you in advance :-)

chives should not be a problem...but you can always check with your dietician to be 100% sure... they encourage spices and herbs...so with that said, my thought would be it's ok...(they wouldn't get caught in your staples...but may upset your tum tum)

During my soft mushy stage, as long as it was soft it was okay. I was warned against eating hard things like sunflower seeds, even ground up, because there might be a small hard bit that wasn't fully ground up and might get stuck in my staple line. Just make sure the chives are fresh, not dried and I think you would be okay with them.

Thanks very much for both of your input. I had them today and they were deluxe! Only problem was when I put cream instead of milk in my coffee - instant tummy ache :-(

      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.

      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!
