Yes but my dr only requires one week. I am actually doing it now. I do shakes and one meal in the evening. As we get closer, I will start eating even less at night.

I will start with liquid diet on Monday... just met with my supervisor today to notify him of my surgery and my need for up to 2 weeks off of work. I am glad that the conversation went smooth too! Back to counting down the days until the surgery!

Woot Woot!! We're gonna have to be pre-op diet and sleeve buds! I am actually nervous about starting and sticking to the liquid diet over the upcoming Thanksgiving Holiday! Gotta get my meditation going so that I can get my mind right b/c I've got a whole lot to be thankful for including the insurance approval for the gift of Sleeve :)

      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!
