November 11th is my surgery. Anyone have theirs around then? I start my prep on Halloween. Protein Shakes 4 times a day for 10 days & 2 cups of veggies which are optional. What is everyone else's prep diet?

3 to 5 Protein Shakes a day, Clear Liquids all day, no coffee, no alcohol, none of the liquids should be over 5 calories per saving and have no carbs. Can have sugar free Jello made from box and 2 cups of broth, or 1/2 cup Tomato juice, and can have sugar free popsicles. Diet _as for 14 days.

My surgery is the 10th. I have two weeks of shakes 3 a day with 2 cups veg. Today is day 3. I do not enjoy the shakes but i made a great veg Soup with curry for dinner which was great. Good luck for your surgery!

My surgery is the 9th and I'm on day 3 of the pre-op diet. I choke down 3 shakes and 1 Ketogenics bar per day. I hate this phase but I know it's what I has to happen for a successful procedure!

      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!
