It's been one week since my surgery and counting Pre op diet I have lost 22 pounds! I know for a fact I was/am addicted to food. The only thing I can think about is eating! I want real food so bad. However I am on liquids for 3 more weeks I don't know how I will make it lol. I am hoping it gets easier!

Awesome! My post op diet was two weeks liquids, two weeks mushies, then all solids. I was so happy to see food. It's tough, not going to lie. I remember at week two, my hubbie brought home a B-B-Q chicken wing and i actually licked it to death.. LOL, that was pretty low for me!

I get it. Today is my one week surgiversary as well. I'll admit I've thought about the chew & spit option. So far I have resisted :-) After the pre-op diet, I've found even cream of wheat tastes fabulous. I'm definitely craving something solid though.

Yes it is easier now that I am 17 days out. My surgeon doesn't let me do cream of wheat or yogurt or Soups or anything. Full liquids to him is Protein shakes and Water and broth...it would be easier if I could have 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'. ???

        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!
