Day 7 on pre-surgery diet



Recommended Posts

Starting to feel much better then I did the first day. I have had some hot and sour Soup which was much tastier then anything else I was having the first few days. Mostly Protein Shakes and trying to drink lots of Water.< /p>

Anyone have any other suggestions for this stage? Anyone else have hot and sour soup during the pre-op portion.

Thanks everyone for reading and answering my questions.

This is going to be a hell of journey but I am ready.

My doctor gave me a list of allowed foods along with strict guidelines about how much I could eat of each one. Did you get anything like that?

I ended up really liking Low Sodium Beef broth in that stage. It helped me feel more full.

Best wishes!

There's a Chinese food place right down the street from my house and when my family ordered from there one night I got a wonton Soup. I poured it through a strainer, gave that part to my mom, and drank the broth. It was delicious!! The closer to the end of the diet I got, the less hungry I felt. And when I did feel hungry it was usually time for me to have a Protein Shake anyways. I think what helped me the most was staying busy. Do things you love or tasks that take a lot of time to get your mind off it and the time will fly by! Good luck with the rest of the diet :)

      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.

      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!
