I had my surgery with hiatial hernia repar as well 4 days ago. Since day 3 i have been passing gas a lot. Each day i have increased my liquids. Im reaching about 48oz today so far. I feel weak at times wish i could eat just a lil spoonful of carbs on this liquid diet. Gas pain is gone but stomach feels like i have done 1000 crunches.

How was your recovery ?? My belly still hurts & im still very gassy. Unable to get anywhere close to 60oz of liquid

I'm 5 days out and what helps with gas is walking. I use a pillow on my belly and gently apply pressure when I get up and move around. This reduces pain and works the gas up or down either way is fine as long as it comes out. I have heard of some using a chewable for gas but talk to doc first and try walking around the house more.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
