HEB is a grocery store chain in Texas, I think.

Depends on where you are located, each HEB markets to the type of neighborhood they are in. In San Antonio Bandera and 1604 has its own health food Protein section.

Best thing I found at HEB was fat free Mootopia milk. It is lactose free milk but has like 12 or 13 grams of Protein in a glass which is much more than regular milk or lactose free milk. I used it for everything to up my protein intake.

I went the HEB and bought a pint of the chocolate lactose free milk, and it taste amazing. However, 1-cup has 12-g of sugar. Won't this be a problem after surgery??

I am Pre-op(Sept 16th surgery date), so I am trying to find things for after surgery. Thank you.

Thank you for the information. Any additional tips please feel free to give them. I feel like I am a little unprepared understanding the acceptable foods and I want to educate myself STAT.

      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!
