My surgery was at 1:00 yesterday, it was a lot more pain than what I was expecting but we finally found a good meds mix to keep it under control. Was up walking this morning. Starting to feel better and have had 3 oz of Water so far.

I found out at pre op today that I am supposed to start my diet now. That means two Protein Shakes and one sensible meal like a frozen ww meal. He said I need to lose 3 to 4 lbs between now and the 16th. How are you doing on the liquid diet?

maybe it's just cause its the first day, but it really wasn't that bad. I had two shakes, some beef broth with dehydrated onions, and some no sugar added fruit bars. I need to find a way to make my shakes not have very many carbs though. skim milk has some crazy carbs and that is what I use to make mine.

I have been using the almond milk with 30 grams Protein, but I'm not sure about the carb count. Might be worth checking.

      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!
