Sitting in my preop room all gowned up and everything, waiting to have my iv started and get meds for my Migraine that started at 3am, otherwise, all ready to go. Also l lost another 5lbs on the all shakes portion, so down to an even 200lbs this morning. Yay me!

Neat to see some having surgery Monday. Best of luck for a complication free/low pain surgery! You can do it!

Anyone starting liquid diet this week? I'm on day 6, and man-- it's easy peasy after day 3. :-) I haven't cheated and I'm not tempted to at all!

hi Melanie! I'm on my first day of the liquid diet and it's fine so far but it's always the evening for me when I get friendly with the fridge! Great to hear that at day 3 it's easier, I'm going to keep thinking that over the next couple of days when it's difficult!

      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!
