I really am going to try. All they allow is 5 slim fasts a day(low carb and reg) or 5c of 2% milk w/ carnation Breakfast drink (no sugar added) that's it!!!! And then all the Water you want.

I quit smoking back in sept so I can do this. I will just be a big B I'm sure lol

Am I the only one that's mind has been taking over by this surgery. My every thought is consumed. I'm sooo ready to get this journey started. I feel like a kid waiting to go to Disney. My bags are packed and I'm sitting in the car waiting on mom and dad to come on. Lol.

My wife is being sleeved next week. So I have heard to watch and help so I know what to expect when the surgery starts. Very excited about learning that my eating habits are more out-of-control than I thought. That's going to be a big change but I'm looking at being a smaller me.

Me too, not looking forward to the pre op diet.. I know it's going to throw me into bad headaches. Not so much worried about the post op diet because I will get full faster

      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'. ???

      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!
