Today isn't so hard for me only because I don't feel good. I'm on the full liquid diet this week and next week yet but I've cheated once or twice with food that was soft. I put my husbands spaghetti in the blender lastnight and ate 1/2 cup of it.....it went down fine had no problems but today my stomach is just upset and I am not hungry. I'm also having trouble getting Protein in. I have the powder but I am so sick of it I can barely smell it without gagging. So the 64g I'm supposed to get a day is only 13-23g I'd say. Ugh my first follow up appt is Tuesday and I'm supposed to be doing a food log and I haven't even done it because it's a hit and miss if I eat. I can't eat as much as the sample logs are their like every hour

I'm doing well with it for the most part. Today had Turkey and green Beans a bite of potato salad mostly egg though. It went down well and I was surprised. Most chicken and Turkey gets stuck. How are you?

Hi Everyone tomorrow will be my 10th day out Surgery date was 11/18/16. I would say the hardest thing has been the nausea. I am on full liquids now and the Protein shakes and milk made me nautious at this point most things make me nautious but I'm getting my fluids in. Any suggestions for the nausea?

      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!
