Hi everyone!
I'm having my surgery on the 21st. Still have to get cleared by cardiologist and PCP . my surgeon did not put me on a pre- op diet however.. Just told me to remain on current diet. I feel like I want to put myself on one since this is 1 week to surgery date.
Congrats to Everyone I wish you all the best on our new journey ! I'm a bit nervous lol

March 8th and starting the pre-op diet. Very hard to not have food.

It's kind of like mind over matter. I dreaded it as well, but honestly I was NEVER HUNGRY!!!. I was surprised that I wanted food but I wasn't hungry for food. It was smooth sailing when I decided to ignore my mind. Glory to God!! You can do it!!!

      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!
