Hi everyone. I'm scheduled for WLS on 2/25 in Louisiana. My dr only requires 2 day pre-op but I'm doing a 10 day on my own. 2 shakes and sensible meal. I'm so excited. CW is 315. GW is 160

Hi I am scheduled for the 25th too in Missouri. I live in Illinois but work in MO at hospital where I'm getting the surgery by Dr Le Grand. Good luck!! Going in at 8 am that morning :)

@Tstorm

Maybe try a different drink? Slim fast contains a lot of sugar which could be contributing to your cravings. I'm on day 6 now and cravings arent so bad anymore.

I stayed on carnation today.... no cravings at all! I think it was the slimfast

Im so happy to have found this site. My surgery is on the 15th. I'm happy' date=' but a little nervous at the same time. every now and again I hear people I know ask me why, and I should just diet and excercise since I'm only 70 pounds overweight, but with my health issues, I figured i made the right decision.[/quote']

We have the same date. Good luck to you. Where are you having your surgery?

      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!
