Well my November buddies' date=' I start my 2 week liquid diet tomorrow (Monday) and I'm kinda scared! It's going to be hard and I'm going to be so cranky to be around! My poor husband and kids!

Just feel like I need a little love here...you all, better than anyone, know what I'm going through!

Thanks for reading. I just needed to vent.[/quote']

You will do great! I just finished day 4 of my 21 day liquid diet and my body is finally accepting what I'm doing to it. It will be hard for the first few days but hold on and don't give in! You will most likely find that yours constantly giving yourself pep talks...I am!

I'm already in it' date=' if you don't get an invite by later tomorrow, in case she's absent over the weekend, message me your email and I'll make sure she gets it as she is very active there. :-) Or some groups allow members to invite so I could try that as well. :-)[/quote']

Yes I sent a message but haven't heard back, figured I'd give it a week, then try again! Hope we get in soon!

I have the same worries you do about hubby & kids! I have thoroughly debriefed hubby that he may want to avoid me at the slightest sassyness in my part bc it wll do no good to bug a starving lady!

Fingers crossed these drinks fill us up! If anything we can think keep imagining our "after selves" and think "I can't have that with out this, bottoms up!" Good luck today, sounds like the first few days are the hardest then it eases up!

Hello to all the new November sleevers and welcome!!! I'm also a November sleever surgery date was November 30,2012. This was by far the best thing to happen to me!!! I'm 11 months out and down 97 lbs and lost 15 inches off my waist alone!! Some days will be hard and there will be times when you have buyers remorse, but believe me it will pass when you see the weight melting off. Just wanted to wish you all good luck on your upcoming surgeries!!

Thanks for reading. I just needed to vent.

We are both going to go through it together today and for the rest of the 2 weeks. From what i have heard its hard the first few days and gets easier after that. Hopefully that's the truth for both of us. Good luck keep us updated on how your doing. I will do the same.

      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!
