I LOVE coconut water and....



Recommended Posts

........ Found some with added Protein whohooooooooo. Bonus is, it tastes lovely, the downer is its a little higher in carbs than I wanted (8g for 330ml) but at least I can get some Protein in earlier on (low in calories and fat though). Protein is 20g/330ml.

One kitchen cupboard cleared and cleaned today and all my goodies are in there for the first 3 weeks (and the 2 week pre op diet). I start the liquid diet on 9th July then in on 23rd I have the op. liquid vitamins arrive tomorrow and thats me sorted apart from making some broth to freeze in preparation for the first two weeks.

I stared at my cupboard smiling- hubby thought I had gone mad lol.

Good luck to all who will be changing their lives forever in July and gentle hugs :D

Its CocoPro. It does say shake the drink but I just gently turned it over a few times to keep the bubbles out and it was fine.

I ordered mine online and they come in singles and boxes of eight.

Hugs

I used to love coconut Water. Post sleeve it makes me sick. Hopefully your tastes don't change post-op on the things you are stocking up with!

Oh the drinks are for the 2 weeks before the op, the rest of the goodies are containers, recipe books, Water bottles etc etc. I will make some broth though for after :D

      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!
