I am 6 days in from surgery and I am so bored with yogurt, pudding...I don't like cottage cheese so that's out...is there anything else I could eat to help me make it through the rest of my two wks?

I struggled with everything the first few weeks. Keep a good variety around. It will get easier. I wanted broth at the beginning. Good luck

My bariatric team had me get mrs grass chicken noodle Soup and cook it up but strain out the noodles. It was a lot more satisfying and did not taste like dish Water.< /p>

@@jenn2752781 Why don't you make the broth yourself? Its very easy and so much better and you controll what you

put in it. The rest of the family can eat the chicken or you can make vegetable broth as well and blend the chicken and

the vegetable together.

I'm not sure if the broth I'm using is the best but I love it and it's a beef flavored. It is not low-sodium. Called Kendall farms. And use it for my Soups all the time and I find it actually at the dollar tree.

You can eat thick Soups also. I had Campbells healthy choice Tomato and cream of chicken Soup, Anderson Soup = Split Pea, or Campbells split pea and I blended in the mixer to make smooth, Healthy choice soups, just eat broth. sugar free maple brown sugar or apple cinnamon oatmeal, Protein shakes, lite muscle milk or Premire Protein shake, get some unflavored Protein powder and add to your food. Good luck it gets easier

My pouch seems to like less flavorful foods right now. My favorite has been Campbell's Cream of Potato Soup with 1.5 cans skim milk and a healthy scoop of cottage cheese. Blend it, strain it (not much left to strain after I used the liquify setting lol) and then I put it in a travel coffee mug. For some reason I have an easier time getting it down that way than using a spoon. I think I slurp in too much air and it upsets my tummy.

      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.

        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!
