I am just wondering what everyone used for the broth pre and post op? Just regular chicken or beef broth or something else? Did you put any Protein powder in it or just take it without??

Thanks in advance! Karen

I tried many variations and my favorites were the flavored broths like miso, garlic and lime/chili/chicken. All with a scoop of Isopure whey Protein. My hands down favorite is the Miso with isopure. It tastes like a "normal" Soup which is important to me.

I used powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury unflavored Protein powder both pre and post op. Mixed it with chicken broth, beef broth, Swansons Tortilla Soup base, Chinese Hot and Sour soup base, strained miso and wonton soup broths. When I was on full liquids postop I also mixed the Protein Powder with diluted strained cream Soups.....shrimp, mushroom, Tomato, asparagus, lobster bisque, butternut squash, etc.

The best Way found was to mix the Protein Powder with a tiny bit of Water in a Blender Bottle first. Then stir the Protein slurry into the soup. Make sure it is not over 140 or it will clump. Soups were a welcome change from the sweet shakes and warm felt better on my healing sleeve.

I actually used the ramen packet and tossed the noodles.

      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!
