Mine is 100 grams.

For my surgeon's program it is 100 grams for all men and anyone with a starting BMI of over 50, 80 grams for everyone else.

If your goal is 70-80 I would recommend aiming for the higher number.

During Stage 2 post-op eating plan, we are told to get a minimum of 60 g/day. I still drink 2 Premiere Protein shakes @30 g each, so I'm good for now. It will increase for Stages 3 & 4.

Mine says women should be between 40-60g. I find that to be way too low, especially for my weight.

I went to the Doctor yesterday, and she advised me of 80-100 grams daily! I'm 2 years out!

      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!
