My 1 month post op...lost 39 lbs



Recommended Posts

Wow I feel great. Since my Jan 2 surgery I have lost 39 lbs. Went from 44 waist to 38 waist. I have not had to take my diabetes medicines

I am on soft/mashed foods. Like to eat fish, hated the chocolate Protein Shakes. I have not had any pains or problems eating. I just eating slowly.

slowly. Eat carb master yogurt from Krogers. My dietitian had me switch to Kroger's Lite Greek yogurt which has 14 grams of Protein vs CarbMaster's 7 to 9 grams.

That is great Larry! I am a couple of weeks behind you. Is that just from surgery/diet so far?

Are you doing any cardio yet?

Thanks for the inspiration,

Paul

You're doing great! I'm also at one month and have lost 26 pounds (ten of it pre-op). My doc. still has me on a liquid diet and I am absolutely sick of the Protein drinks. I get to start solid food in six days (not that I'm counting).

      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!
