Someone suggested drinking a Protein Shake for Breakfast and lunch for a few days with lean meat and veggies for dinner. Make sure you're getting >60 grams of Protein and > 64oz of fluids. It broke my 2 week stall with a 4 pound loss and lots of changes in my body. The only thing is that I don't know if it broke the stall or if it just broke on it's own. It's worth a try, though. Good Luck!!!

Another suggestion my NUT tells me is to have at least one meal w no carbs. Preferably the evening meal, but not necessarily. She said something about it wakes up the body or something.....she told me this in preop in May so i'm really digging into my memory bank. Can anyone confirm this? Or did I make it up? :-)

I am going to try the Protein Shakes again, but to be honest i hate them :-) any suggestion with the shakes? ? After surgery i can't tolerate any artificial sweetners so this is a hard one. Thank you for the suggestions!!! :-)

      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.

      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!
