my husband had his surgery June 20th. He has been sore also but was up walking the evening of the surgery and walked every hour the day after.

unfortunately he has not done as much walking at home but he is doing some. He is getting tired of the liquid diet. We are trying to figure out when he will get to start eating again. We are a little confused about this. We understood that he would be going to his doctor 1 week after surgery after eating a bite of a boiled egg and would progress from there. Well he had the surgery on a Monday and the doctor has made his appt. for July 1st. He was on liquid diet 2 weeks before surgery and now they want to keep him on liquids for 2 more weeks. He is having a hard time with it. I am hoping to get some advice from others on this site.

I'm on day three after surgery today. Today is a lot better than yesterday as far as getting liquids down. I'm just kind of accepting the fact that my belly is sore and feels full but I need to keep getting my liquids in.

I also did a two week preop liquid diet and first two days postop were Clear Liquids followed by two weeks full liquids. There will be plenty of time to try new foods later, but now is the time for healing.

There's a lot I can try on full liquids, shakes with different added flavors, strained Soups, yogurt, veggie juice, pudding.

It will be six weeks before I can have "regular" food, so I'm staying positive because I'm in this for the long haul.

My surgery was on June 21st and I'm already on puréed food. My 2nd day after surgery was painful from gas. Just had to keep moving. Feeling good. I haven't vomited or anything. I've had scrambled eggs, tuna, cottage cheese, and buffalo chicken.

      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.

        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.
