So, I spoke with the surgeons office this morning. Surgery is scheduled for 11:45AM on July 21st. Woo! So the diet starts on Monday, July 11th. They said for the first 7 days, I get to have 2 Protein shakes, and 1 Protein and veggies meal. Then the last 3 days is 3 Protein Shakes. So my question, if you've had a similar diet, what did you do for your protein and veggie meal? I know if I don't ask I'll resort to chicken and broccoli and that is boring. :)

Thanks!

My pre-op diet is the same as yours. I start it Monday. I've come up with some ideas-hamburger patty with salad, grilled fish with asparagus, I was thinking of a rotisserie chicken with some sort of veggie.

My surgery is the 21st too! It looks like my diet will be similar & I don't know what to do for my veggie & Protein meal either. There are lots of frozen fish meals. The salmon is really good & also the lemon pepper fish.

Hey. I my surgery is Wednesday July 6th. This pre op diet is kicking my butt. When I get up,at night,I'm so groggy and weak I wonder if I'll make it back to bed... Makes me wonder if I'm that weak,after surgery with the incisions,how I'll get up do my business then back. The diet isn't great but doable. I'm apprehensive to say the least..

      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.

      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!
