I am only on day 18 ( and was thinking about the "when" idea of tacos, but know that I canno have it annnnnnnytime soon).

Actually..... I've only lost 12 lbs and have stalled al-damn-ready....( for the past 5 days)..... So I guess all i NEED to eat are Protein drinks!

( feeling very discouraged & frustrated right now....)

Maybe that's why I was "dreaming" about tacos.......

I've heard there's a side effect of having Surgery in Mexico...... You wake up from anesthesia craving, chips, salsa, guacamole and Margaritas..... and instead of walking.... you do the Merengue... Ole'

Weird question. Has anyone tried to eat raw oysters on soft foods? Haha

I've had cooked oysters. A bit tough. Raw oysters are generally not chewed so I think it would be too big a chunk.

Are shrimp soft foods?

My surgeon classified them as a soft-solid food. I could have them in week four. Flaky white fish was considered a soft food on my plan and I could have it in week three. I had red snapper the beginning of week three and it was like heaven -- probably because it was at a really nice restaurant and the chef prepared it very well. I had no issues with fish (white flaky) and ate it often in weeks three and four. I still enjoy it about once a week but have moved on to other stuff as well now that I'm in week seven. :-)

I am allowed to eat shell-less tacos, I will be ten weeks out..... haha, make that taco with no lettuce, but I make up my little (very little pile)... sot seasoned turkey, cheese, small dollop sour cream, salsa..... but I decided not to eat this too much, it really is a trigger to wanting the actual shell..... must be because I went to TJ for the surgery, weird huh?

      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!
