I wouldn't consider chinese broccoli a mushy, it's usually really crunchy and that's why I like it.

I ate a lot of vegetables with bean curd Soup on my pre-op diet. It's basically steamed veggies and tofu in broth. I bet that would be good, and if you put it in a blender it would get really mushy.

Im right there next to you. Chinese has been my fav. my entire life, I look forward to eating it again just a small portion instead =). I haven't read any restrictions about eating it.

I've not had a problem with chinese after my surgery in May. You could do Wonton or Egg Drop Soup if you're craving now and on mushie/liquid.

      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!
