Ayla there's a secret group on fb for only female sleevers in their 20s. If you want to join, message me your fb username and I will tell the admin to add you.

So, I've been on my high protein/low carb diet since the 1st. I lost like 5 pounds but now I've gained :( hoping the weight gain is no indication of my liver not shrinking. Please please please let my insides be good for surgery Tuesday!!

I sent you my info . Your on the liquid diet? I lost 40 lbs before my liquid diet then when I got on it I cheated and gained 10 pounds but that was 9 days ago when I went to get my blood tested. I had my last blood check yesterday and I had lost 15 pounds in 9 days from just liquid no cheating. The best thing to drink is carnation instant Breakfast. With skim milk. It's the best one I've had. The other ones taste like Protein lol ish! Your not only hungry mentally but you physically get hungry. I felt sick for awhile. But now I'm just pumped to get it. Stay strong don't cheat! My doc said you will know your livers shrinking if you lose a significant amount of weight during the liquid diet. Hope it helps (:

Im not on a liquid diet, its just high Protein low carbs. I cheated ONE time a few days ago but I had lost since then and it was VERY small amount. I decided for these last few days I am just going to do clear liquid and hope it gets me where I need to be by Tuesday.

      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!
