Hi there. I'm 10 days post op and I've just about had enough of liquid diet. I feel like I need some sort of food to just feel like I'm eating.

Could anyone tell me when they started eating things like mashed potatoes after their surgery please?

Nadia I'm 13 days post op. Mashed potatoes were added for me last week. Have you tried the sugar free popsicles? They help. I completely understand, I am so ready to chew something but we have to make sure that are stomachs can handle everything first.

I'll try that thank you. It's so right I feel like I need 2 chew and swallow any food ????. I am going to try yet again to get in touch with my dietitian tomorrow and see what she says.

Thank you very much for your help ????

my doc has me on full liquids first 3 weeks. I'm so sick of it too. I'm allowed yogurt and Soups etc. today was my first day back at work and I ordered a Soup from a local chinese restaurant (chicken and noodle soup) told them to hold the noodles, hold the chicken lol. just had the broth...it was heaven! so good. Mainly because it was different than what I've been eating at home (home made Soups i'm now sick of). i can't wait to have puree's and soft foods next week.

I feel exactly the same. I'm so sick of soup and I'm counting the days until I can eat lol. I know this is worth it but roll on puree food ????

      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.

        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!
