Finally since the end of last week Ive been doing pretty good. Im just doing Protein Shakes for first two meals and salad for dinner and have had some string cheese or celery when hungry. Im struggling with guving up my soda!!How about u guys?!

I gave up soda about a month ago!! That was hard.. But now.. not so much... I am on Day 11 Pre-op Diet... My food list consists of: Water, Protein Shakes, Jello, Applesauce and Broth... I sucks!!! Really bad when you are with a bunch of people and you can't eat!!.. Just keep reminding myself just a few days left to go!... But on the bright side... Down 13lbs!!

Hi 2 u 2 ???„

My pre-op is two weeks Of Protein shakes with green veggies

I have found that Sticking to the shakes with a greens only salad is very very very hard!!!!!!! But gets easier the closer to my surgery date This Friday.

I'm so jealous!! i really want food!!! But I guess, since I will have nothing solid for 3-4 weeks after, I can understand preparing the body!

Hi karisa

Doing very well, the only pain I am having is like you at the port site. Went for Breakfast with my wife and felt like I could eat which was surprising!! But only had apple juice and coffee, not going to take chances at all!!

      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!
