I bought the Premier shakes before surgery. I did well on them for my pre-op diet. However today I am POD # 12 I can't get nearly enough Protein in and haven't been able to yet! The Premier shakes are soooo gross now!

My surgery was 9/2 and i cant get much Protein or all my liquids in. I threw up everything on day one, couldnt even keep a sip of Water down. Im much better now but still cant get more than a few ounces at a time without feeling very full.

I will be 3 weeks out on Monday and still find it challenging to get all of my fluids and Protein in.

It's almost a full time job!

I'm not quite 2 wks PO and I'm still struggling. I'm about 30/40 grams Protein and about 32 oz Water a day. My surgeon said that's fine for right now on my visit with him yesterday. He said it will increase as the swelling in my stomach goes down and I'm able to hold more.

Half the days I'm good with my PP shakes, and the other half, they don't feel/taste good to me. That's when I use the Syntrax nectar stuff. Right now I'm working my way through a PP chocolate. Yesterday, I couldn't stomach these.

I'm 4 days post op and I'm having a hard time getting the Premier Protein shakes down too. I like them before the surgery but now it's like I have to choke them down. I can barely finish a whole bottle. I did find that adding some instant coffee and a touch of sweetener to the vanilla shakes made it better, it was like an iced coffee

      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!
