I was on Clear Liquids for the 1st post-op week before moving to full liquids the 2nd week.

The only things I consumed during that first week were sugar-free Powerade, sugar-free Ocean Spray cranberry juice, Water, and ready-to-drink Protein Shakes.

Good morning, my surgery is Tuesday and the stress is hitting. What did everyone “eat” the first week? I know it is all about the Protein but what did you use? Has anyone used GENEPRO?


I have not had it, but it was suggested by my NUT. Since it has no flavor, it can be put in Water with Crystal light, as well as in broth. I will buy a sample from GNC before I have surgery to try it out.

I was sleeved 10/11. Warm Bone Broth has kept me sane. Good luck.

Protein Drinks are the staple early out; I would avoid that GENEPRO stuff as it neatly fits into the "too good to be true" miracle supplement scam category (and nobody really knows what it is.) whey Protein, preferably whey isolate, is the well accepted, best absorbed form.

I also had greek yogurt, eggs, and some sloppy tuna salad, though those may not be permitted on some diets the first week or two - check with your program directions.

I was on clear liquids in the hospital so days 1-3 (discharged on day 3) and then Full liquids until my follow up so about a week and a half. I would eat broth, cream Soups strained and Protein Shakes. I liked the Atkins Protein drinks and GNC Lean Protein shakes.

      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!
