Pre-op weight-loss!!!!!!!!!!!



Recommended Posts

Don't think so much about weight just follow the plan and you will be ready for surgery . The weight comes off everyone different. So don't set your expectations high just follow through with what you are taught . It works . Some lose fast and some lose it slow and some have stall outs at different stages. You are doing great just hang in there

How can I lose 10 before surgery? They diets I've been trying haven't helped. I need advice!


I lost 10lbs in 7 days on the liquid diet prior to surgery with ease. Looking in to different whey protiens and skim milks. It can be done.

I did 3 Proteins shakes everyday and a gallon of Water a day for my pre op diet. I did no food. I lost 24 pounds

It's not to lose weight, its to shrink the liver so its easier for the surgeon to get to the stomach.
Have you been told that you have to lose 10llb a short time before surgery?
Kate

Yes that's exactly what they told me.

lost 12 pounds in 1 week




No I wasn't told I had to lose weight I just figured that eating this way would naturally have me drop as its significantly lower cal than I have been eating for past several months

How?

      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.

        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!
