Yay Xombae! Sleeve buddies! How have you been coping with wedding and the pre op diet?

My preop diet is pretty lax (egg whites, turkey deli meat, chicken, white fish, Protein shakes) but being at work in the lunchroom with everyone is a little tough. I'm noticing everyone is eating everything I can't have. And as far as the wedding goes, it's just a small courthouse wedding with a few family members so stress is low.

No, but my plan states specifically no fruits or vegetables. I'll post it on here when I get home.

Okay, it's different in the UK. All i had yesterday was a cup of hot chicken stock for Breakfast as I didn't have any milk for shakes and 2 bottles of Water. Then had steam stirfry veg and 2 cod fillets when 8 got home from the hospital. How did your pre op go. Did they swab you for MRSA?

Nope, all I have left to do is a blood test the day before surgery.

It looks like mine will be the first or second week in November and I was thinking I could start a Facebook group just for us November sleevers.

I tried joining the group since my sleeve is November 23, but it says no more members are being accepted. If it is okay, I would still like to join.

My surgery is November 4th, and 4 days after my wedding. My status with my insurance company is still pending, but the center I'm going to for my surgery said not to worry since they're out of network. (but I'm paying in network prices)

I'm the 4th as well!!,

AnaDana I started preop diet today and I came to bed early to try to fight the hunger. Not sure if I'm really hungry or if it's all in my head. I know I have to succeed though. Here is what I have to do for mine. attachicon.gifImageUploadedByBariatricPal1477445355.305700.jpg

      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!
