My husband and I went out to eat last night for the first time after surgery....we went to Sonny's bbq.....I had smoked turkey and green beans......I basically had a whole dinner left that my husband took to work with him today for lunch...haha It was good though and fun to go out again!

@ Be careful with baby food - my NUT doesn't recommend it because it's not as Protein rich and often has hidden sugars.

My program actually recommends baby food over pureeing your own. Just the plain stuff, stage 1 and 2, nothing with rice, noodle, or potato. I'm also still drinking quite a few Protein shakes/smoothies.

My first post surgery checkup was yesterday. I was down 14 pounds right on target. I am trying to only weigh every 2 weeks. I am still amazed how different doctors prescribe different diets post op.

Had surgery on 5/20, am down 16 pounds and am very very tired of full liquid diet!

I had mine a day before yours and I can tolerate solids food now, very little, but it's so much better

3weeks yesterday and down 16 pounds. I'm still on soft foods until day 40 then I can transition to normal foods. My energy is still a little zapped but I'm sure that will improve with time.

      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!
