Important liquid diet question



Recommended Posts

I'm about 5-6 days in on the liquid diet and I've noticed that when I drink the Protein Shakes really slowly I get full off of them and I'm not hungry through out the day. So because of that I have a Protein Shake for Breakfast and one for lunch and sip Water all day and then have a broth for dinner. Today I woke up with a bad headache and felt a little nauseous. I haven't even gotten one full shake down, only about half so far and its almost 2pm. I feel very tired as well. I slept in until about 11:15am this morning and I feel that could have contributed to it since I didn't get my morning Protein shake.

Any suggestions on what to do? Maybe someone had the same thing happen?

Thank you for your help in advance ????

I would try the genesis Protein in a broth or Soup and not just Protein Shakes . Are u allowed some diluted fruit juice? I am and I had some yesterday just in case the body needed a little sugar and the broth I'm drinking today has some sodium:) hope it helps.

      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!
