It gets better I promise after one more day it should be easier. I also had a cold or something the first week I started my liquids but it did pass too. Good Luck

Are you trying some hot/warm fluids? I was allowed broth and that was a life saver for me!

i am on day 6. it does get better. i am drinking the vanilla powder with Water. every three hours. and drink lactose free, fat free milk separately (diabetic) because the milk made the shake like sludge. i thought it would be really hard over the weekends but its another hurdle i can check off. i had a gassy headache for about 4 days. and the flatulance is an embarassing situation i think is from the milk. but day 14 is around the corner.

push through. chase with Water if you have to. try blending shake with ice. You Can Do IT. :)

I'm on day 14 of liquids my surgery is12/16 I got super sick at about day 10 came down with a really bad cold high fever the works I'm sure from the lack of nutrients went to Dr they put me on a 3 day zpac I'm now 3 days from surgery and feeling good again. I think it's normal to get a little sick a lot of people do. Just drink your Vitamins I did a really nutrient rich chicken Soup and put it through the bullet blender 1,000 times so it's like Water and that has made my body bounce right back. You will be fine. Keep us posted!!!

Also beef bouillon cubes in hot Water seemed to help curb my hunger. They worked best for me.

      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!
