Heather, I am in Dallas. Dr. Jayseelan is doing my surgery at Medical City. I am on only Clear Liquids for 7 days. I am on day 2 and have surgery on friday, Feb 7th. Popsicles, Jello, Protein Shakes, gatorade, etc. are it. I got a pedicure today and some girl was eating Taco Bell and I wanted to yell at her. 5 more days! Who is your dr and where is your surgery?

Hi you saud clear liquids, then u mentioned Protein Shake (is that clear)?

Well I didn't really lose any weight this week. I'm barely eating anything so idk what the problem is. Pretty disappointed in a 1-2 lb weight loss.

U have to get the Protein in, it will help. Were u told to sip Protein Shakes?

I am so glad I came across this website, everyone is so encouraging and full of knowledge. I am starting a pre-pre op diet. My surgeon says I have to lose 37 pounds before his office will submit my information. I have been doing this since November 2013 and it makes me real anxious to have to lose the weight.

      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.

        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!
