I make thinned mash potatos with a little bit of butter. I use all of the liquid and only half of the instant potatos required. It is like potato Soup but it feels a little thicker. It has been helping me get through this liquid stage. I use all skim milk instead of any Water.< /p>

If you have a Trader Joe's near you...try the Tomato and red pepper Soup (not spicy-sweet) and a big spoonful of low fat ricotta cheese in it....yummy!

I have about 8 days left too. I'm not allowed riccotta or cottage cheese yet though. This helped me to mix it up a little: I made a variation of Cauliflower Soup. I boiled a head of cauliflower, put it in a strainer to drain. In the hot pot I added 1 Tablespoon olive oil and about 1 Tablespoon dehydrated onion. You can use fresh if you want, I just happen to have the dehydrated on hand. I added 2 cups skim milk, then poured in about 1/2 cup skim milk with 2 Tablespoons cornstarch mixed with it. Brought it to a boil (that's when it thickens) added the Cauliflower back, salt, pepper and a little nutmeg. Then used a hand blender and completely liquified it. You can pour it in a blender if you don't have the hand held one. It was a nice change from chicken broth. Now if anyone can tell me when this gas pain in my shoulders will go away, that would give me a light at the end of the tunnel.

Hmmm! That sounds tasty -- I'm going to try it! :thumbup:

OMG-- I thought it was just me ..

I am soooo sick of Soup, Jello and juice drinks. This morning . DH made a scrambled egg, then put it thru the food processor. I had 1 tablespoon of egg and it was pure heaven. I am drinking Protein shots, but it does not seem to be enough to keep me from getting the shakes.

This one ounce every 15 min is a major pain in the @$$. I think more about food now then I ever have.. Setting the little timer every 15 min is really wearing on my last nerve.

      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!
