If you stay with the high quality Meal Replacements and keep up your Vitamins, it can't be that bad for you. I know that my doctor wanted me to move on to more solids when I was slow to do so. I was having problems, and so I slowed my move to solids and re-introduced the shakes a bit. He discouraged it, but not becuase it was bad for me, but because he wanted me to keep moving forward - not backwards.

Why not go 1/2 way and replace 1 or 2 meals a day with shakes and then eat a sensible dinner (sounds like a SlinFast commercial). It might help you get back on track.

You also might want to try and figure out why you are eating what you called "all the wrong foods." Is there some issue that maybe playing a role in your choices? I will admit I eat so little that I do not feel bad if I sneak in a little bit of the "wrong foods." But it is a treat and for the most part I am eating pretty well.

Good Luck!!

Well I just eat out of emotions and that's what has me being overweight in the first place! That sounds better what you suggested 2 shakes and a meal sensiable is the important word! Thanks for the advise I felt so lost today

Feeling lost I think is becoming part of everyday life for a lot of us. Some days are great and others are just stinkers. At least you know that you can reach out here on the site. It is a pretty freindly group of people that all understand the good and bad sides of food.

AND REMEMBER ITS FRIDAY!!!!! Everything is better on Friday. :D

      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.

      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!
