Did you not get a diet plan from your surgeon, nutritionist, ect...? Its hard to give you advice on what to eat without knowing what stage you are in?

What @@Elode said... I'm utterly shocked at how many people have no idea what they're supposed to be doing. Maybe I'm just obsessive compulsive, but there's no way on earth I could do this without educating myself on every single morsel of information I can get my hands on. Is this a lack of research or is this an inept surgical team? I sincerely interested. I'm not trying to be a b!tch, I'm just seriously concerned at how many people do not know. This is a major weak link in our bariatric system as a whole.

Let me clarify this by saying that I know that this site is for support and information, it just concerns me that so many people leave surgery empty handed.

Its almost like they haven't went back to their doctors for a check up. I have a binder that tells me what to eat at every stage, I don't have my surgery until 12/10 but I already know what I'm to eat at each stage and I can call the staff anytime day or night.

      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!
