My surgery is December 4th and I also am feeling anxious. Started my pre-op diet last week, it's not easy so I'm very eager to just get this over too!

I have a two week liquid diet that consist of Protein shakes and applesauce or Jello that is it. I sure hope that I can stick to it. Thanks for letting me know about the other post Lambert. What is do you have to do for your liquid diets?

My pre-op diet is 3 shakes a day using the Bariatric Advantage brand, and one frozen meal under 300 calories. I can also have fresh veggies, chicken broth and sugar free Jello. I'm on my 9th day and have dropped 9 lbs. It's not easy, and maybe even more so living in a house where everyone else is eating what they want but I'm just keeping my eyes on the prize!

My surgery date is 11 December. I started my pre-op diet on the 27th. I was trying for the sleeve but my insurance would not cover this "new" procedure. I am actually looking forward to my surgery as I have battled with my weight for the past 31 years

      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!
