Hi fellow September Sleevers!

I've been taking some vacation time and relaxing a bit before hitting the pre surgery diet and then surgery on September 9th!

I am nervous, and excited.

I've found this pre surgery diet (870 calories) a B*T@H!!!

Over the past couple days I have found that lemon Water (which I actually enjoy) helps curb my appetite. I have Jello cups 25 calories if I need a snack, a Protein Shake mid day or mid morning and then a Lean Cusine or similar meal for dinner.

Yesterday, I was super busy at work so no time for lunch, at dinner I had a chicken and liguine Lean meal and put the food in green leaf lettuce leaves like a wrap. It was actually pretty good. That was 270 calories. I seem to be doing well.

My pre surgery appointment with the Dr. is August 28th, she wants to see that I've lost 10 to 15 pounds. YIKERS!

How is everyone else doing that is pre surgery for September 2015?

I just love this group.

Each time I am here I learn more and have come to know that I am not the only one. Which was sometimes my thinking.

I can't wait to stop avoiding mirrors!

      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!
