Hi xojessny, I am having my surgery on May 19th. How has the pre-op been going for you? I was on the May 20th thread. There are a few of May 19 sleevers there too.

It's going ok for me as well. Suger-free slurpie sounds divine! I am beginning my 4th week of the post-op diet. So tired of the Protein shakes, my buds need something else. I'm allowed two cups of veggies or non-fat Soup. I've opted for Tomato. what are you able to have on your post op diet? I've learned that there are different pre-op diets on this forum.

I am going to the pre-admission testing today. They said I'll be meeting with my anesthesiologist, run some more tests that weren't done at the medical clearing testing. Have you had yours yet? I'm a bit nervous but eager to go through with it.

Hi xojessny,

Pre-testing was a snap! Ekg, anesthesiologist, chest x-rays and blood. I was in and out in 90 mins. Hope yours goes well today.

Yes. It's 3 days liquid only. Protein Shakes, chicken broth, sugar free Popsicles (no red or purple) and Jello. I've heard most people have a much longer preop diet but it includes some foods correct?

      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!

    • buildabetteranna

      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!
