Going to the Movies



Recommended Posts

I am a popcorn addict and go to the movies several times a week. A friend who had the surgery recommended Gerber Graduates Puffs. They are a Cereal snack that has a little crunch to it but melts in your mouth, 150cal for the whole container, no fat, 1 gram sugar, are rice based with several flavors. I put them in a baggie and snack through the movie. I'm doing my pre-surgery diet now, just waiting for my date!!

Ooohh yeah i gave those to my son when he was little. Thats a great idea. And they have a bunch of flavors. Also Walmart has a brand thats even cheaper.

Probably little Protein, if any. I buy Snacks called 'CrunchO's' from Faunce Corner Nutrition in Dartmouth MA. They carry a variety of products that are recommended for bariatric patients, including Vitamins, Calcium, whey protein, and high protein foods and drinks. CrunchO's are shaped like cheerios but are the texture of captain crunch cereal. The come in Sour Cream & Onion and Barbeque flavors. Each individual single serve bag is 12gr of protein. They are delicious! I pay $1.75 per bag. I think Faunce Corner Nutrition might do mail order. Check out their website or try to find them at a nutrition store near you.

If you have trouble finding them locally, Amazon has Crunch O's - 4 bags for $5 and $5 shipping. Little more expensive that the nutrition store but I gotta give them a try. 12g of Protein in a snack is pretty awesome! http://www.amazon.com/Crunch-Os-Sour-Cream-Onion/dp/B005YVUE6A/ref=sr_1_1?s=grocery&ie=UTF8&qid=1389660287&sr=1-1&keywords=crunch+o%27s .

      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!
