I am 1 week out also! So far I've lost 14 lbs. I have been able to get 60 grams of Protein in the last couple of days (unfortunately, my goal is 77-96 grams...so I'm still not at my goal).

I have a lot of tummy rumbling, my sleeve is very noisy. I have times where I feel hungry also, but I've seen on this board that many times than can be stomach acid and not true hungry. So I'm trying to just focus on drinking as much as I can and it seems to help. When I really feel hungry then I have applesauce, broth, Jello, or yogurt, those are all on my plan for now. I don't get to soft foods until 22 days post-op.

My surgery was April 13. Am on my first day of soft food after 11 days of puréed food. Everything has worked smoothly. First follow up with my surgeon on the 6th of May. Walking 2 miles a day.

I was sleeved on the 21st and am not allowed Protein yet, Clear Liquids for the 1st week following surgery. I have my 1 week follow up tomorrow and hopefully will be allowed to add protein and be on full liquids.

So not actual powder, all pre made shakes?

Yes, all premade. It seemed like Premier Protein had excellent reviews and most people really like it, so I gave it a try and liked it and stuck with it. I added in the Isopure for variety (it tastes more like unsweetened kool aid). I have ordered a sample of Unjury unflavored and I'm waiting on it to arrive. I hope that I like it so that I can add it to applesauce.

      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!
