I too am on pre-op diet. Are you getting any Protein? Protein is very important, both now and after. Can you drink Protein Shakes? My favorite is Pure Protein. 30 g protein. Everyone has their preference.

I start mine the 21st for December 6 surgery. Not looking forward to it t all, since I always look forward to thanksgiving and Christmas dinners, but ultimately I know that missing this one year will probably add 30+ years to my life.

I'm on the 20th also==we're surgery twins--I wish you the best of luck (and to everyone else on their upcoming surgeries). I started my liquid diet last thursday---A couple of days were pretty tough--I think from withdrawal from carbs--it's better now but I'm pretty weak. It will be here before we know it though--from what I've heard, it's not quite as hard after since you aren't that hungry--(I pray that this is true!)

If you like spices or hot sauce that will give it flavor! For dinner I had cream of chicken and put in just a bit of franks buffalo hot sauce! Gave it some flavor and made it better to eat! Lol! I know they td us after we get sleeved and if we can handle it use sauces to spice things up! The weekend will be more challenging for me but I'm gonna keep busy cleaning house ect...

      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!
