It's my birthday... restaurant ideas?



Recommended Posts

I am 23 days post op, pretty much have only been eating oatmeal and mashed potatoes. My parents really want to take me out for dinner for my birthday, but I have no idea where to even go. Anyone have suggestions? Or even what to eat?

That depends on which stage you are on.

It sounds like you might be on the pureed stage. If you are, you can order a really soft fish and mash it up with a fork to pureed consistency. Also, you can have mashed sweet potatoes or mashed carrots... just mash till they are mush. You could also do a Soup, but it needs to be a strained soup, no chunks on the pureed stage.

Otherwise, if you are on soft foods, you can eat mainly fish for your meat and real soft veggies.

Sorry, should have said that! Yes, puréed stage. And awesome! I will definitely go with that then :) Do you think salmon would be the best choice of just whichever is steamed?

      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!
