It doesn't seem as if you are drinking any clear Protein. I bought Syntrax nectar in Fuzzy Navel flavor. Not bad. Having the Protein is important. Also are you drinking Water?

Yes, Protein Drinks seems to help curve the hunger pain and plenty of Water. i went to Vitamin World and found whey Protein Isolate (vanilla). I was very happy with that, especially with skim milk, yummie. Please get the protein in.

You should be consulting with your doctor about what you can have at this stage. All doctors are different on what they allow their patients.

Sorry didn't realize I didn't talk about the Protein. I'm having 3 shakes a day they are my surgeons own brand that he sells in his office. I also have cambells Soup juice or a Popsicle. Alot of Water an I get in some propel here an there. I get hunger spasms kind of. When my stomach growls it hurts extremely bad.

That might be gas and not really hunger. If the docks letting you have oprotein shakes see if he will let you get some unflavored Protein Powder and blend that with crystal light. It's really good if you make crystal light ice cubes and blend really well in a blender. But do what you doc says. Keep in mind this stage doesnt last forever.

      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!
