Ok....so this is something small.... I am in my 2 week liquid diet with my surgery coming up on 7-13-11. My BF brought home a mini snow cone machine today from wally world ($20) with some sugar free snow cone syrup! This has been one of the best days of this pre op diet...lol. It's the small things I guess :)

That is a fabulous contraption to have!!!

When all else fails there is ONE food that never makes me feel like my esophagus is going to explode or nauseous -- sugar free ice pops, ices, etc...

Wow, now I want a snow cone machine!!! How cool is that!

oh, that sounds great!! I can't eat popsicles because i have this thing about the sticks, but a snow cone, that would be perfect. I might have to go to Walmart before Monday when my liquid diet starts.

TRUE LOVE! It is the little things that show support and love! You are very lucky! :)

and by the way....the magic bullet I bought makes shakes WAY too foamy (too much burping) so all it is good for is snowballs....just in case you were thinking of getting one.....the Protein just does not work well with it....

Omg!! This makes my friggin day!! I've been wondering if I could have a snowball! My friend owns a stand, I'm in Louisiana, and she said the flavors were sugar free but it still worried me. And I looooove the spearmint and vanilla Orchid Magic one!

      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!
