What does your plan say? I was on full liquids at a week out. I had 3 8oz shakes a day and would sometimes have a snack of Jello, pudding, or potato Soup.< /p>

Ditto, I was on full liquids. I did 2 shakes a day and non chunky Soup or veg broth for dinner with unflavored Protein powder added.

However programs vary. Some have a clear liquid phase week one and some go straight to purees. You should call and check your program for recommendations.

At one week I was eating three mini-meals of soft Protein and Protein shakes. A mini-meal consisted of 1-2 oz of things like cottage cheese, yogurt, ground meat, deli turkey, etc. Things that were soft and I could chew to a mush. My surgeon's plan is pretty progressive. I'm now 3.5 weeks out, and feeling great!

I should add, I was on the above meal schedule starting on day 3! I certainly couldn't get even 1 oz in at a time the first few days, but it was nice to be able to chew, and have actual food at meal times.

I am 3 days post-op. I'm eating sf Jello, chicken broth, as much Water as I can stand, Decaf tea, and just ordered a snow cone machine for my shaved ice treats. My grandson will be pleased!! Anyway, I am to be on Clear Liquids for two weeks, then go to stage two. I've also got popsicles, made with sugar free MIO, and other Water flavors. I found the plastic tubes for these at a Kitchen Collections store at our outlet mall..Must eat slow. Really important.

My plan has Clear Liquids for 2 weeks (water, broth, SF Jello, herbal tea - and Protein powder) - then week three I start 1 soft egg per day for 1 meal - eating only as much as I can tolerate - 2-3 bites at first (using a baby/toddler spoon) - take 20 minutes to eat it slowly - stop when full and throw away any remaining egg; make a new one the next day - that's week 3 - egg week. Week four introduces soft Proteins for 'at least' one meal per day (liquids with protein are for the rest)

      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!
