I haven't had surgery yet, but I am on the pre op diet. One of our favorite recipes is half the spaghetti squash width wise and put face down in the crock pot, add a jar of low fat (or in our case, we make our own) spaghetti squash, and I like to add diced chicken. Cook on low for 5 hours. YUM!

I tried making spaghetti squash once and found it difficult to make. I recently picked up a vegetable spiralizer from Amazon for less than $10. I've made yellow squash and zucchini noodles with that and it works great. Takes less than 5 minutes start to finish. Totally works in place of Pasta.

I bake it and then use a fork and scrap it out, it comes out like little noodles. I love it and my boyfriend has fallen in love with it.

I should correct my post, I loved it before surgery. I have not tried it yet. I am only 6 weeks out and don't know when I can try again.

      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.

        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!
