I finally have my surgery date for a gastric sleeve, it is JULY 25th!. Are there any others out there with the same date? I am worried about losing some weight before hand. Tomorrow I go in for my final nutrionist appointment, so I am going to assume I will be placed on a liquid diet. What kinds of diets have any of you guys been placed on?

Also is anyone gettting it done in Westchester Medical? I am soooooooooooooooooo anxious about this. i have so many things going on in my life such as relocating to a new state, and I quit smoking after 10years. so I have alot on my plate.

Hey we share the same surgery date!! I am so excited and nervous and anxious, just a ball of emotion really! I have already lost about 5 lbs of the weight I am supposed to lose before my surgery and my DR doesn't do the liquid diet before the surgery, he just basically says lose this weight or else the surgery is off until I do. So I have researched several diets and have settled on the cabbage Soup diet. Since I have been dieting on and off for the last couple months and lost, i figure a real strict diet is just what I need to get rid of the last few pounds. I am so ready for this surgery!! Good luck to you and congrats!

Congrats on your surgery date. :D

      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!
