Tomorrow I am cleared to eat anything. What veggies did you eat first?

Zucchini sounds great! I was maybe going to sauté some spiralized zucchini. Thanks [emoji4]



Sauteed zucchini was the first veggie I tried. I sauteed it with a little olive oil and some light fresh herbs. It was delicious

I don't remember when I actually started more veggies, but it was early on. I was cleared for all foods about 3-4 weeks. Up until that time, my nut approved of my "green bombs" in Protein Shakes, which were ice cubes sized blended green veggies and fruits, that were blended in to my drinks. So technically, I had veggies from the get go. Didn't bother me at all. Now I do recall having salad early on, didn't bother me either.

That is good to know. I love your green bomb idea!

I've learned the more you eat Beans the better your tolerance. I eat them all the time and don't have issues with gas. Kind of the same but off topic, peanut tolerance...there was a study done that if you start your kids early on with peanuts during infancy (obviously a safe way to introduce it), those kids have built a tolerance of them. It's all very interesting actually.

I eat all kinds of beans and lentils and don't have problems. That is interesting about Peanut Butter.

I had sautéed zucchini noodles with spaghetti sauce. It was good.

Mashed sweet potatoes! I missed them so much. I couldn't add butter or brown sugar, but I did add cinnamon. They were delicious!....All 4 bites of them!

I made roasted sweet potatoes with black Beans and chimichuri sauce- I didn't eat much but loved them. Mashed sweet potatoes sound great too!

      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.

      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!
