CLEARED FOR SALAD!



Recommended Posts

OMG!!!!!!!! I JUST ATE salad FOR THE FIRST TIME IN MONTHS!!!!! IT WAS GLORIOUS!!!!!!!! Ohhhh thank you God! I have missed it sooooo much!!!!

So do you eat it alone as a meal or do you pair it always with something? Mine tonight was a chef salad, so it had Protein in it as far as meat protein. My dressing was balsamic vinegar and light olive oil.

I have salad almost every day for lunch always with Protein. Today I had a tablespoon of Trader Joe's tzatziki sauce (creamy and delicious with only 1 gram fat, 1 gram carb and 15 calories), and pork loin. It was so yummy and filling. Other Proteins I often have are chicken breast, taco meat (made with low fat ground turkey) or Gorton's grilled tilapia. I love my daily salad.

I remember the first salad I had, it was decadent! Though I no longer eat lettuce salad. I only have so much room and lettuce has no real nutritional value. Almost all my salads are kale now. Make it and eat it the next day after it has softened.

      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.

      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!
