One week Post op. lost 12 LBS!!!!!



Recommended Posts

What can you have for the first few weeks. My wife and I go to Monterrey Oct 4th. Is it clear liquids. Just wondering what to buy and have in the house for then we return. I have one real vice. I drink diet dr. Pepper 18 per day. Trying to cut back before surgery. Do you have any other suggestions.

You will now be able to have Dr. pepper any more. Anything carbonated will hurt your new pouch. Switch to crystal light I love that. The peach ice tea is the best. Cream of brocolli Soup you can have. Suger free popcicles and fugecicles. Those new yougert drinks or yougert. Jello chicken broth. That is basically what I have been eating.

Hi,

Congratulations on your upcoming banding. Every Dr. has a different diet for post op. Mine let me have any liquids, blended Soups, yogurt drinks, juice. No pop, in fact I just plain quit drinking it! Applesauce and other blended fruits were ok, milkshakes or diet shakes were ok too.

Good Luck, you'll love it!!!

Today I will work 4 also. But Friday I have to work 10 hrs on my feel hopefully I will be ok. But I am healing quite niceley incision look good. There hasent been any redness around them or anything which is good.

      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'. ???

      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!
