I'm hungry right now and I'm sitting in the Drs office (not for lap band) thinking about what I could grab to eat on the way home. I've had a Special K Protein Shake and Gatorade today :/

I have heard pintos and cheese from Taco Bell or taco johns is supposed to be a decent quick Protein.< /p>

If you are on liquids then i would recommend the fruit and yogurt shakes from McDonald's or sonic.

Georgia, stop in the grocery store. Grab a yogurt or applesauce that are in the tubes so you can eat on the go.

5.0junkie, sorry to hear your still on liquids. My Dr moved me off day 4 post ok. Mushies and soft food help give you more energy. Hang in there. Hopefully you don't have much longer.

I'm in my first full day back to work, and it's kicking my butt.

I had pintos and cheese on Saturday. Oh I was a happy camper. (While my family scarfed down a little Caesars pizza with breadsticks and soda. Didn't phase me... Haha!)

Little Caesars is my crack! My husband knows I may have to kill him and bury the body if he wats that in front of me. Lol! Kidding (sort of).

5.0junkie - you can always try calling your doctor and asking if you can try more? Tell them you are ready and hungry...

That's what I did and they allowed me to advance a little after I called and asked :)

it smelled good but it wasn't appetizing. I find if others are eating junk as long as I'm eating something healthy with them it doesn't bother me.

My parents had a dinner party the other night and I was there. appetizers, dinner and several options for dessert. It was like a feast. And here I was sipping on my shake. I felt like a drug addict needing a fix. I was nearly salivating!

Seems like all the September people have moved off liquids except for me. I'm jealous.....

Not me, except yogurt, til Oct 14th.

I am hungry because I didn't eat enough during the day, I think. After my daughter gets off the bus, I am going to eat some greek yogurt and take a well deserved, much needed nap.

Ok so get this. Just left my first post op appointment. Doc says I'm doing great and excelling better than normal. He told me to do whatever I want from here. Told me to call him up when I feel ready for my first fill. Told me to take it slow, introduce foods one at a time and keep things soft progressing to regular as I felt fit. He basically told me that no matter what he told me to do it wouldn't matter because my body is my body and it will let me know what it can handle. I'm just supposed to use my judgement and listen to my body. I'm thinking I love this guy for the freedom but it also seems like giving a fat guy the keys to the donut shoppe. Wish me luck!

      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!
