I can hardly get 2 shakes down, they make me sick. I am trying them today with unsweetened Almond milk. Hopefully this will make for a better day!!

You know what's good too? If your allowed Decaf coffee, mix the shake and coffee. Then it tastes kinda like a mocha

Okay, so the Dr upped my surgery date to the 25th....waaaaahhhh. :( . Ah well. That's not much farther off from my original date (20th), only 5 days more.......sigh. He had some family stuff to do apparently....... :huh: . I didn't push honestly, didn't want him to have daggers on the mind while doing my surgery! LOL.

July 8th. I hope the pre op diet doesn't kill my energy too much. I have a lot I want to do before surgery lays me up!

I have begun prepping myself by stopping coffee, tea and cutting down carbs. I have even started sipping my Water in hopes to make my preop easier. I start preop on the 1st shakes n sf Jello. My nutritionist recommends i stay away from clear broth because it can trigger hunger for solid food.

      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!
