For the full liquid phase, I discovered V8 made some really good Soups with no lumps. Potato Leek, Garden Tomato, and Butternut Squash were some I ate regularly. Of course, any cream Soup or broth with no lumps is fine.

As far as Protein shakes, I tried 3 or 4 store brands and couldn't find any I could stomach. I finally ordered unjury online and love them. I'm almost 9 months post op and still have one for Breakfast every morning.

Best wishes to you.

I made a batch of different veggie Soups with Beans etc added for Protein, spiced to my liking , blended and then froze them. I think I had V8 juice once or twice but didn't really like it. I also ate custard,yogurt,jelly etc

My doc let me do two shakes per day and a healthy choice or lean cusine for dinner. Not bad at all. I started early to get use to it and was able to survive. Good luck :)

I just made Soup yesterday and added cottage cheese to it (then blenderized) for added Protein. Yogurt, soup, pudding.........that is about it. I upped my milk consumption, low fat/sugar popsicles, fudgecicles............I do 1 Optifast per day just to get some calories and protein in me. Campbells gardenney has some good soups.......some need to be thrown in the blender just to smooth them up a bit (veggie.)

      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!
