you may want to look at the slim fast, ensure ect they may have too much sugar and such. I think just Protein Powder with Water maybe better (be sure to read the contents). And like the other post Jello and popsicles.

I'd just buy the water and broth out of your list. My NUT gave me a list of acceptable RTD items and the other 3 on your list weren't on mine.

That said, I have made two trips to GNC and purchased muscle milk and Isopure. They had some marked down due to exp dates coming up in December.

My doctor said No Muscle Milk Mix your Protein Shakes with 8 oz of Skim Milk

Hmm, I can see why. The regular MM is higher in calories. The mm light is on my list of acceptable rtd shakes. It's lactose free, and I am very lactose intolerant pre op. My choices are pretty limited.

      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!
