I like to buy those rotisserie chickens. You can make a dozens different things with it, and no cooking. Example: Toss on a pre-package salad. Mix with a little mayo and relish, and you have a chicken salad, If you can tolerate bread, then you have a chicken sandwich, or my favorite, just melt some cheese and eat it like that.

In the early days, if I didn't feel like eating or cooking, I would experiment with different flavors of Protein shakes.

I don't cook. Eat lots of sliced low sodium chicken, yogurt, cottage cheese, apple sauce, Quest bars, nuts, etc.

I'm single too. I buy the pre sliced chicken and steak and frozen veggies. Its easy to microwave just what I need without having a bunch left over!

Sometimes I have a big drink when i want to eat but tummy is not growling. It helps me get my liquids in and eat less

      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!
