What's your diet, that finding vegetables to work is such a challenge? Can't make suggestions unless I know what the limitations are. :)

I don't know! I think I can have anything really. But, I have been eating cooked, soft veggies. I heard that one should not eat raw fruits or veggies for a while, so I haven't. I really don't know what the limitations are. ???

I make a veggie stir fry....olive oil..soy sauce...teriyaki sauce let them saute' and emm good

instead of plain steamed broccoli i cook my broccoli in a little olive oil and add all kinds of seasoning like garlic and basil, zatarians, onions....and it is sooo good.

I am from louisiana so we love boiled seafood.....but sometimes i take all my veggies that i like....celery, green Beans, onions, corn, brussel sprouts, cabbage, mushrooms and some potatoes and lemons and boil em up with some lite salt, zatarians seasoning...and it is mmm good.

you can also take whatever veggies you like and put them in the oven with a can of cream of mushroom or cream of onion or cream of celery ..whichever your preference be and put some seasoning on them and let them cook....very good that way.

Thank you so much! I didn't think about the stir-fry option. I think I'll try that. Now I am getting to the point where I can eat anything, nothing really gets stuck. So, I start with my Protein as the doctor recommended, but I am missing veggies so much.

Can I ask y'all another question... ? What does your daily meal plan look like? Do you eat 3 or 4 meals a day? Snacks? liquids? I'm just trying to get a good picture. I wake up at 6:30 am with the baby and I work till 11pm at night. It's hard for me to limit myself to only 3 meals. Any suggestions?

[sorry, I thought I could post any poll. I didn't realize it had to be the same subject.]

      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!
