I am so anxious! I can't even sleep! I had to go in for my surgery pre-op and get x-rays and meet with the nurses. I'm so excited! Thursday can't come soon enough!

I went for my pre op stuff at the hospital yesterday. I think that's when it really hit me that this is happening, and soon!!! Well that and the fact they took away my food and are making me drink this nasty Protein Shake stuff. Ewwwe. Lol. You better stay in touch after surgery!! I want to know how it goes for you :)

I will definitely stay in touch! Same goes for you!!! I want to know all the details! The shakes haven't bothered me yet, but I'm sure they'll get old. My favorite so far has been the costco ones. I didn't like the Isopure but maybe I'll get used to it. Ok! Last weekend before the sleeve! Let's rock this!!!! :)

Day 4 of shakes and I'm feeling GREAT!! Honestly I was soooo hungry yesterday but today I haven't even thought about food. Woo Hoo!! I'm so ready for Thursday. What time is your surgery? Mine is not till 1:30. So 11:30 arrival time at the hospital.

I'm doing the Bariatric Advantage shakes right now because they were a "have to buy" from my docs office. I got the shakes and all kinds of chewable Vitamins. But once I run out I will definitely try the costco ones. Oh, Gatorade makes a Protein shake that I bought for after surgery. It's 8oz and 20grms Protein. I went crazy at the grocery store finding anything and everything that has protein. Ha ha.

      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!
