It's good that you called your doctor, you can't be too careful. I think once you get to where you can get an ample amount of liquids in you, you will feel much better.

Let me know what he tells you.

If he wants you to have Protein, try one of the clear Protein Drinks if you can't handle the regular ones. I used the New Whey protein bullets, but some doctors don't like them. Lots of people use Isopure.< /p>

I like the powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury (unjury.com) unflavored. I mix it with skim milk and sugar free carnation instant Breakfast. It's thin enough to go down even when I'm tight and packs about 35 grams of Protein.

You should be trying to get at least 60 grams a day.

Hope you're feeling better today.

Please don't be scared. I live away from my hometown for work and I know what you mean about having friends or a person nearby that is going through the same thing as you. I started looking and posting videos on YTube and that helps me. I know that it is not for everyone but it was easy for me to meet others that are going through the same experience. I've also found this site helpful. If you have questions or concerns don't hesitate to ask. Wishing you all the best.

      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!
