Recommended Posts

Omfg what did I get myself into. I thought oh whatever two weeks piece of cake but I'm on my first day and I literally want to start eating my arm. I'm so hungry! Any tips on how to survive 13 more days of not eating? And last min prep

Today is my 8th day on pre-op diet. The 1st four days were hell almost as if I was detoxing. So much better now. Just think of the outcome!!!!

I totally feel you guys! My surgery is the 20th and I am on day 3 of my lean diet ( forever greatful it's not all liquid). The first day I cheated and told myself just that one time. Yesterday I wanted a pbj soooooo bad and my mind wanted to say just one more time. However we all know one is never enough so I prayed and asked God to get me through the night and shared how I was feeling with you guys on here and I made it through the night.

Mine is on the 20th as well. I am 5 days into my diet as well, first 3 days great, no problem. Yesterday and today I could eat the house. I promised my husband that if I cheated in this diet I would cancel surgery ( he really doesn't want me to do it, he is scared silly). Not going to do either. Cheat or cancel..gotta keep your eye on the prize

I'm on day 7 of my two week diet and I'm not doing too bad. Haven't really been too hungry. At certain times I have been but for the most part I'm doing pretty well. I can have 4 Boost a day and broth.< /p>

I'm now starting day 4. It's got a little better but I'm having cravings. Just more so I think because I can't have it and really want it. I just keep remember there's a reason I'm doing this there's a reasons I got like this in the first place so gotta keep going. My friend had surgery a week ago and another friend 6 months ago they said cheating was going to happen because your body feels deprived. Glad to know I'm not the only may surgery:)

With our date getting closer are you getting more nervous? I'm after day 7 for shakes and it's became easier, like just a part of my routine. We got this though!!! Months of hard work and endless appointments

      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'. ???

      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!
