Protein is very hard to get in for me as well, Protein pudding has been the only way for me to get it down, I had the rny on Jan 22, I’ve lost 35 pounds already, welcome to the site

Hi Thanks for replying, you have done really well! What else has helped and if you dont mind what Protein pudding have you been having? I'm a bit stuck on food choices

1 box sugar free pudding
2 cups skim milk
2 scoops 60g Protein powder

Mix chocolate Protein Powder with the milk and mix well then follow the directions for the instant sugar free pudding box

I usually make this last 2 days so I get 60g protein each day

I also eat scrambled eggs, usually 1/2 to 1 egg

Broiled fish
Chicken salad with light mayo
Egg salad light mayo
Lots of sugar free popsicles
Fat free cheese sticks
Natural apple sauce
Organic 3 Beans in can
Cottage cheese
But I only eat about 1/4 cup at a time

      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!
