I was only required to do a liquid diet the day before surgery. It sucked really bad' date=' especially since my surgery was delayed a day!

Just remember- this liquid diet won't end the day you have surgery- it continues for 3 weeks after your sleeved. I am on day 2 post op and it still sucks very bad.

Be sure this is really something you want to do. You won't ever be able to eat the way you did before. I miss food very badly. It is hard to cook for my family and not eat anything. :(

I am only consuming Popsicles, Protein shakes, Water & propel. Nothing else.

9 to be exact lol yea Water helos but for some reason I think tomo is gonna be a tad harder at work n crap.....lol

You shouldn't feel this bad the entire 10 days, just the first 3 or 4. You'll be surprised how good you feel on so little nourishment after that. You'll have energy too!

I had two weeks before and 3 weeks after. If you do it right? You'll not have to do it again. It is well worth it to be safe for surgery and heal!!! Good luck!!

Yea thankfully my job gave me today off I really needed it im trying to stay busy and Water definitely helps make my belly full but the head hunger is a bi!* im not bout to lie every fast food spot looks more appealing shoot to be honest VEGETABLES look like a steak dinner with a slice of pound cake and a tall sweet lemonade......I KNO ITS ONLY DAY ONE....BUT I think ill get thru it...never knew how much I would miss chewing.....

Hello and I'll pray for the strength u will need to get threw this! Question: I've yet to go threw thus bc I have the class on June 13th, so I'm wondering, I realize its liquid but will they not let you chew sf gum while on it, its not like ur gonna swallow it, I hope:)

      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!
