Just thought I would pass on what helped me stay SANE during the PRE-OP and I also have some of this in POST-OP. Of course, consult your doctor to make sure it is OK for you and your plan. My doctor had me on a liquid diet 800 calories or less. The mainstay of my diet is fat free cottage cheese - a powerhouse of low calories & Protein. Fat free Greek yogurt is another one of my main staples. I also love a yogurt drink called Keefer from Publix that I can have a few sips if I don't have time to eat and it fills me up for few hrs.

Lasagna - fat free cottage cheese, spaghetti sauce, small amount of Parmesan cheese

Mexican - fat free cottage cheeses, salsa or nacho cheese

Spicy Yogurt - fat free Greek yogurt, salt, pepper, red pepper (or Toni's seasoning)

Rice pudding - fat free cottage cheese, Truvia sweetner, cinnamon

Tomato or other Soup w/melted cottage cheese for more protein

Diet protein Soups

  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.

    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!
