I am on day 3 of my pre op clear liquid diet and i have to admit today has been the easier of them so far....definitly not EASY but totally worth it and its true that it does get easier. Day 1 i was dying lol i was wishing i had one more day to eay whatever I wanted but that of course got me to where i am now. I agree the popsicles really do help and i go to bed early just so i dont crack at night. I have a 3 year old and making her food at first was hard but today has been so much better!! Can not wait for Thursday morning to get my sleeve done.

I'm on Day 1 of my pre-op and I'm beyond hangry. I don't want this broth, I don't want these people bothering me, I just want to throw a tantrum and then eat a pound of food.

I know it will pass, but good LORD this is the worst.

How did you deal with being hangry?

It really helped me to eat icepops cause I could eat them slow. I always had a large cup with ice Water or diet green tea.

The first few days are the hardest. This liquid diet will help to make sure your surgery is safe and get you started on the right path. Resist the urge to cheat. It will only make the pain worse.

Just about made it through Day 2. Still hangry, but it's not as bad.

      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!
