I'm doing much better today. Everything is still kind of running straight through me, but I am trying to get it all in and drink a little more slowly.

The Protein Shakes will grow on you. I'm working on some recipes to make them better. I added unsweetened almond coconut milk, Water, tiny bit of Splenda, and cocoa powder to a scoop of banana flavored Syntha-6. It's yummers, but I have to drink it soooo slowly.

Be patient and hang in there, it will get better! Our bodies just need time to adjust :-) and we will be healthier before we know it.

Shoot me a message anytime!

Hey everyone. My date is October 22nd. I noticed a couple of people' date=' Lucky T and 1SuperBonBon. I have Dr. Kim. My pre op is on the 16th so I don't know my time yet. I am so excited. No pre op diet. He just told me to continue with what I've been doing to lose the weight. I am so excited![/quote']

Hi, you and I are sleeve sisters. I am October 22 also. Pre op testing is Oct. 10. I won't know until then if and how long I would have to do a pre op diet. But I have cut back and have been trying shakes and bars. Good luck.

YES! Tons of patience. I'm guessing we will get used to it. I have been taking the first half hour of the day to make sure I get all of my meds and supplements in.

Yesterday wasn't great and I didn't get much in, but I've been taking it much slower today and I seem to be doing a lot better.

Slow and steady! We will get there :-D

One day liquid diet oMG I would have loved that as my pre op diet no 14 days. And then the day before surgery I have to drink 1/4 of this nasty liquid to clean my intestines I don't even want to think about it

      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!

    • buildabetteranna

      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!
