March 5th and coming fast! I see a lot of people have to do a liquid diet before hand, my doctor never said anything regarding it. Just can't eat 24hours before surgery. Go for PAT's this Thursday. Anyone in NY a March sleever?

I started my liquid diet today.... The Protein Shakes are making me gag a little..not going to lie. I diluted them with Water which is making it a little easier to take in. It will be a long 2 weeks but it will totally be worth it!

I started today too!!! Felt great this morning, now I feel like Im counting down the minutes to lunch... lol... Luckily my surgeon ok'd Herbalife shakes which I like, so that makes it a little easier for me.

Good Luck! Here's to hoping the next two weeks fly by :)

My surgery is 3/3. I can't believe it is so close. I have been on my liquid diet for a week now and it's not as bad as I expected not really hungry.

Mine is March 10th. I am super excited! I have all the things I need. I have picked out the shakes I like, The only thing left to do is clean the house top to bottom and make my room relaxing since I will be recouperating for 2 weeks in it. I plan on getting some new candles to burn and just loving myself while I am healing. What a vacation...lol. Ill make the best of it.

@ I have Synthex-6 vanilla ice cream and also bought almond and cashew milk. i also have chocolate Premier Protein. I have also bought the unjury chicken Soup. I have tried Unjury chocolate and I like that as well. I also would recommend Chike. it is so good. Make sure you buy some PB2 powder to doll up your vanilla and you can also but the SF Torini. I have even covered the basis of Water. I have lemon flavored torini SF to mix in my Water. I love variety so as not to get bored quickly. i start my 2 week diet tomorrow, Today is food funeral.

@ marissa75 I would like to add that Vitamin Water zero is something I have stashed away as well. Like I said...Variety is key for me.

I'm 3 days into my pre-op diet and it's okay. I have found that I like to take my Protein Shakes blended with a little bit of ice

      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!
