Surgery is scheduled for 10 am tomorrow. Been on Clear Liquids for the last week and was on full liquids the week before that. I'm ready to get on with this!

I wonder what the difference is... Why some are on the 2 week pre op diet and others the 3 day. Good luck tomorrow! :)

I had my surgery on April 7, its been a good ride, down about 50 lbs, but know that after surgery NOTHING is gonna smell or taste right or good. It took a month and things are getting back to normal for me, except the Constipation.

Good luck, you will do wonderful!

I went to two 711s in NYC they didn't have them. bummer! Xojessny, our day is fast approaching. What are you bringing to the hospital? Also, I'm going to put myself on Clear liquids 3 days before the surgery. It's odd that there are so many different pre-op diet and lengths. Mine being 4 weeks. I feel like it's been forever although easy not to think of what to have to eat 3 times a day.

Thought the whole point was to give up soda?

Good luck ladies! I'm scheduled for the 21st. It is coming up really fast.

The pre-op diets are all over the place. I only have to do two weeks of Clear Liquids. No soda now or after surgery as well.

I thought the same about the clear diet sodas but again, it's all over the place. Haven't received instructions to go clear but see in the forums and other related materials that most doctors recommend it. I haven't had soda of any kind in 3-months, won't start know. I have not received my time yet. Wish they would provide it so I can make transportation plans and guardian plans for my child.

      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!
