Recommended Posts

Can anyone give me any pointers on good things to eat and drink. My weightloss is moving. I did go thru the 3 week stall but I realized im not eating or drinking enough. Water is boring but I will drink it. I tried tge Unjury unflavored Protein. Unless I didnt mix correctly it was an epic fail.

I know that with the Unjury, the temp needs to be under 140 degrees. Herr is my water bottle, a friend made it for me.post-236461-14236440959292_thumb.jpg

First... congrats on your loss so far... you're doing great!

Some things I relied on a lot not so long ago... Individual servings cups of hummus, thin cut deli meats, salami, and something I still love and use quite a bit... Justin's Nut Butter packets. I eat the Honey-flavored one (the sugar and calorie counts are about the same as the regular, so no big deal.)

I also enjoy Lean Body brand Protein shakes. They're of the ready-to-drink variety, you can get them on Amazon, and they have ZERO sugar. The vanilla and banana are my faves, but the chocolate one isn't so bad either. I'm just not a big chocolate guy to begin with. There are two sizes... a smaller one with 25 grams of Protein, and a bigger one with 40. Especially in the earlier days when I still couldn't eat some foods, these helped me quite a bit.

I'm so happy for you!!! You are doing GREAT!!! I am using GENEPRO unflavored Protein, 1 small scoop has 30 grams of protein and you can put it in anything including coffee and Soups. I mix it in pudding as well.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      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.
