I have a hiatal hernia, but havent met with surgeon yet to find out if she will repair during surgery or let it be.

Prayers and good vibes. Im told each day gets better.

Maybe since he didn't mess with it, it was that bad. When I had my surgery. He did my sleeve and repaired a hernia that I never knew I even had and he also removed some fat from behind my left breast plate as he felt it would cause a lot of acid reflux and issues for me. Other than that it went great . I'm sure if he has any concern he will let you know. I'm sure he will monitor it! Congrats on surgery and your transformation! Can't wait to see what you do(:

Tomorrow is my last day before my 2-week liquid diet starts on Wed. I've already cut coffee out slowly even though my nut said I didn't have to. They did say to try to stay away from caffeine for the 1st week after surgery so I didn't want to be going through caffeine AND food withdrawals at the same time [emoji15]

Anyhooo, I'll be taking a before picture and weighing myself one last time before the weight loss ensues.

I did the same with coffee. I figure I'll start it up again once I'm fully healed and eating solids with no problem.

I want to give details but I am still so drugged up. The surgery went well it was very fast. The only problem I'm having right now is getting up and down. My already week stomach will not tolerate the pain meds. They make me trow up

I also have this. They found it last week during my endoscopy. My doctor makes everyone have one prior to the surgery so they can fix it while inside. My surgery is on Friday and I'm having both procedures done. They said it will take about 3 hrs. I'll know about the pain Friday....not looking forward to it (the pain).

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
