I recommend a low carbohydrate high Protein like south beach or Atkins. Many obese people eat way too many simple carbs which trigger hunger.

Southbeach is a very humane eating style. As a vegetarian, it worked pretty well for me (until it didn't!) Choosing low glycemic index carbs makes such a difference.

I decided on WLS last December. Since then I have been on several programs. Each had a reason

Jan and Feb-- on my own. Cut down portions and did a Protein meal replacement for lunch on work days.

Mar-Aug. -- medically supervised program: 3-4 oz lean high quality Proteins, veggies, some carbs, lots of Water.

Sept Pre- op liquid diet. 3-4 Protein shakes per day and lots of Water

Oct 3 ----- sleeve Surgery. 1 week of Clear liquids, 3 weeks of thick liquids.< /p>

Nov. Soft Proteins ground chicken, ground turkey , tuna, cottage cheese

Dec - lean proteins. chicken turkey fish etc. no beef, pork , or veal.

I am grateful for the help I got along the way. I have all of these programs in my bag of tricks. I can, and do mix and match them to control what I eat.

Next week I get steak! Woo hoo!

I have lost 65 pounds in 2013. 35 pounds more to go. I feel great. This has been a life changing experience.

I wish all of you a Happy, Healthy, and Successful. 2014!

      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!
