Pre-op, how much did you lose?



Recommended Posts

I'm on day 6th of my 15 days pre-op diet. My diet consists of 5 Protein Shakes, recommended by the doctor, one serving of starch, vegetables and fruit a day and Water, Popsicles, etc. I was very anxious and thought it was going to be harder but I haven't cheated even though I've had to cook for my family. My surgery is on 3/8 and hopefully will be on the losers bench afterwards.

I lost 13 on the pre-op diet. Didn't really lose much on the supervised 6 month program.

      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.

        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.

      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!
