I am so happy!! Went to my second post op with my surgeon and I am down 20 pounds and thank god I can eat!!! Things taste so good and I needed that fuel so I can workout and do my Water aerobics. I am feeling like a new person!! I made my hubby dinner last night, chicken enchiladas which is his favorite. So I had a lil refried Beans with cheese verde sauce and a little chicken out of the enchiladas. It was heaven!! So what is everyone else eating for soft foods. I would love some recipes :)

I made buffalo chicken dip last night. It wasn't as good as the original but it was still really good.

I used a cup of Greek yogurt, about half a pack of ranch powder, a can of chicken, a block of non fat cream cheese, and franks red-hot sauce. I just mixed it all together with my kitchen-aid to shred the chicken and baked it for 15 mins of 425. Tons of Protein.

One of my favorite recipes right now is just a couple of chicken breasts, a pack of taco seasoning, and a jar of salsa. Cook it in the crock pot for 8 hours on low and it just falls apart. You can use it for tacos, burritos, salads, or just eat it by itself. You can even add Beans and tomatoes and make it into Soup.

I bought a cook book recommended by my nutritionist - "Eating Well After Weight Loss Surgery". All the recipes "blend" well and are really tasty. The recipes also tell you how much you can eat at each stage.

      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.

      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!
