How much weight lost on pre op



Recommended Posts

I have been ordered to do a one week pre op diet and I want to lose at least 10lbs during this process. I'm not scheduled to start it till Wednesday but I'm thinking about starting Monday. How much weight did you lose on your pre op diet?

I lost 8 lbs. and promptly gained 8 lbs. in the hospital. It took me a week or so to lose the 8 lbs. again.

IV fluids and swelling. I didn't weigh myself right after surgery, but 1 week postop I was still up 5 pounds.

Yup, the IV fluids, gas & swelling will get you all the time.

I see that a lot of you get to eat on your pre op, The only thing I get to do is eat sugar free Jello. I have to drink a minimum of five Protein shakes a day, and the rest is Clear liquids.

      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!
