My favorite soft food so far is baby bell cheese.< /p>

I made meatballs (93% lean) in spaghetti sauce and ate it soaked in sauce to keep it moist. Was able to eat 1. 93% lean is on my diet list. Some can't have beef for 6 months.

Refried Beans were a lifesaver for me at that point. Also, mashed up canned chicken mixed in with Tomato basil Soup. A little cheese is good, I second the Baby Bel cheese. Also maybe break up some turkey meatballs in a tomato sauce.

Laughing Cow cheese is also good, some non/low-fat Greek yogurt, small curd cottage cheese (w/ a little unsweetened applesauce, like 1tbsp), SF pudding made with 2% milk (you can add Protein powder!). I could only do a single soft poached eggs at two weeks, and I'm still turned off by canned tuna and chicken. I also made a roasted cauliflower mash (any recipe online works) and added Protein Powder, it was pretty tasty.

I also like the Laughing Cow "cheese" but keep in mind that (at least the wedges I bought) are not real cheese and don't have much Protein. Still, I buy them and enjoy them. Some of the new flavors are really nice although the original swiss is my favorite.

But a Laughing Cow low fat wedge has only 2g Protein, while a Baby Bel for the same size is real cheese and has 6g protein.

I didn't realize that Laughing Cow was not real cheese until I noticed that it does not require refrigeration! Holy (laughing) cow!

I eat chicken Soup, I just cut the chicken in small pieces, the moisture of the broth helps it go down smoothly! I also eat Beans and lentils with chesse, cottage chesse with banana, I've had some tuna and salmon, potato and egg salad. I can only eat one boiled egg, I haven't really tried it fried or any other way. I also had some turkey ground meatballs with Tomato sauce (it was great). I've only been on soft foods for 5 days!!!

      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.

        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!
