I can't believe how difficult this pre-op diet has been. I've done it for a week so far. Another week to go. Surgery June 7th.

Wow! You ARE Lucky. I'm reading that others don't have to do it at all. How can there be such a difference? I thought there is a medical reason behind it.

Im gonna start a liquid diet today cuz I need to lose alot of weight before next Wednesday. I was told I only needed to do a 24hr liquid diet the day before and nothing after midnight the day of surgery. I think its up to the doctor if a liquid diet. Anyways, I know I can lose 19lbs by next week. Its just discipline for me not to eat all day and night and chose food that is healthy. Anyways,have a good day.

      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!
