I'm in week 2 and cleared for full liquids which includes smooth yogurts. My NUT told me to try mixing sugar free Jello into plain fat-free greek yogurt. DEFINITELY helps the flavor of the plain yogurt. There are some yogurts that are blended with fruit -- where there are no chunks or anything of the fruit but I haven't been able to find them.

Yogurts with chunky fruits are off the list for this week -- not until next week pureed or the week after soft.

I am allowed but honestly my taste buds have changed so I can only eat the plain greek yogurt

Smooth yogurts just after surgery. Greek if you can find and eat it. Blend it if you need to, but no fruit lumps to get caught in staple line just after surgery. I would get the cherry type and spit our the cherry chunks after sucking out the flavor. (TMI?) I would measure out my 2 oz serving in the 1st couple of weeks, but bottom line, a one serving container could be 2 meals. I love my Greek yogurt, now.

Be careful with the no fat 'fruit' ones because they typically have a ton of sugar in them. I just flavour them myself. At your stage you can sprinkle some Crystal Light crystals (if you are okay with aspartame) in any flavour. Once you've moved up the food chain :) you can add your own fresh fruit, frozen fruits and for sweetener I use Steevia as Splenda and Aspartame etc are garbage.

      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!
