1. Cottage cheese (or yogurt) and fruit

2. black Beans and sweet potato

Basically, the only things I eat (18 days postop) are:
-light and fit greek yogurt
-morningstar spicy black bean 'burger'
-cottage cheese
-premier Protein shake
-eggs

I can't think of anything else to eat either. meat gets stuck, even deli meat, so I'm not bothering with meat at this point.

But I too am getting bored with what I'm eating. What is everyone else eating?

Hello

i think you should try oatmeal. It is very soothing for your stomach. It works for me and may work for you. I also make my own Protein Shakes with Peanut Butter , half banana , strawberry or any fruit you like with Gogi berry and I add a scoop of organize greens powder. I hope this can help you.

I use oatmeal with a spoonful of peanut or almond butter and almond milk. If you need it a tad sweeter blueberries or a small amount of maple Syrup gets me through the morning

Protein Powder Mug Cake.< /p>

One scoop Protein powder. 1/4tsp baking powder. Enough liquid to just moisten--sugar free Creamer, half and half, mashed banana, milk of any sort, even canola oil--then microwave for about a minute. If your protein powder has no egg protein in it (syntrax matrix is the one I use and it does) then use an egg or egg white for the liquid.

For me during the weight loss phase things like oatmeal and the homemade Protein Shake above (am I missing another protein source in there other than the Peanut Butter? ) would have been way to high carb and sugar. But your mileage may vary.

      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!
