I am obsessed with Peanut Butter. Never was a big fan before surgery, but cant get enough of it now. I am 10 months out and for a while I was eating a serving, or two, of PB a day. I started with reduced fat PB then moved to natural PB. Dont crave the natural PB without sugar as much, but it isnt terrible. It is high in calories for so little food, but I work out everyday and needed to add more calories to my overall diet. Nut also wanted me to add more carbs (seemed weird to me when she said, but it seems to be working) So once or twice a week before I go to the gym I will have Peanut Butter on one slice of Delightful Wheat bread. Gives me carbs and Protein to get me through workout. My nut thinks as long as I meeting my macros and staying under my calories or the day, there is nothing wrong with PB in moderation. That is the part I had to work on. I was going through a jar every 7-10 days for awhile. I now try an limit myself to 3-4 times a week. It fulfills that sweet, rich taste I crave sometimes. Really should try the PB2 or PB flavored shakes.

Started eating creamy Peanut Butter during puréed stage....3 weeks postop. Ate it at least 3-4 days/week. Switched to super chunky at 6 months once I got brave enough to put whole nuts in my sleeve. Peanut butter and apple or banana slices have been a mainstay snack for the last 6 years.

      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!
