Ok, today I tried the P3 (protein) snack pack & I finally found something that is easy for me to eat. Part of problem of me eating was choosing food that doesn't hurt to eat. Thanks for whoever mentioned these Snacks...it's like a lunch meal for me

Blizair09 how long do you wait between eating and drinking? By the time i realized i need to drink several hours have passed. And by the end of the day I've eaten like twice. Also how early do you start getting everything in?

I've timed my meals to coincide with my Vitamin schedule:

7:15 - Breakfast and Vitamin #1

8:15 - Start drinking (not really waiting an hour after breakfast, this is just when I get settled in at work)

9:30 - snack #1 and Calcium chew #1

12:00 - Stop drinking

12:30 - lunch and vitamin #2

1:20 - Start drinking

2:30 - Snack #2 and calcium chew #2

5:00 - Stop drinking

5:30 (ish) - dinner and calcium chew #3

0 minutes after dinner - Start drinking

Bedtime - vitamin #3

I went back and added in my drinking schedule. Between 8:15 and 12:00, I generally drink 48-72 oz. Between 1:20 and 5:00, I drink another 48-72 oz.

I don't have any problems at all getting liquids in, in fact I drink 100+ oz. a day; I actually stop mid-evening so I don't have to get up and pee during the night.

@@Torriluv87, I keep a "consumption record" each day where I record when I eat and drink to keep up with everything. I usually start between 8:00 and 9:00 in the morning, and finish around 9:00 at night. It is an all-day affair.

      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.

        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!
