Plans and Menu for 4th of July



Recommended Posts

Happy 4th Everyone! Just wondering what everyone is doing and what you're having/serving? We're having a barbecue with grilled chicken, corn on the cob, and broccoli salad. I'm also making a fruit plate with strawberries, blueberries, and bananas to get my red, white, and blue in there. The family will be bringing the other treats like cupcakes, Pasta salad, and all the goodies I won't eat but they love :) Other than that, the plan is to keep the kids entertained with sparklers, the hubby happy with his corona, the dogs tranquilized from the neighborhood war zone that occurs every year, and to enjoy the sunshine! On Sunday we're leaving for camping for a week. How bout you guys?

We are celebrating 2 birthdays. My daughters was July 1st, and her husband's on July 5th. So hanging out at my house barbecuing turkey burgers and hot dogs. I'm also making my famous jalapeño poppers and fruit salad. In place of cake, I bought mini red velvet cupcakes, so basically they are just bite sized ;)

Shooting off fireworks to end the evening. Happy 4th everyone!

      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.

      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!
