Hi friends!
I am also getting surgery on 7/28. Yay, we should follow each other's progress since we'll be on the same timeline.
I'm starting liquid diet tomorrow and definitely not looking forward to it.
I hope it gets easier for you! Like PrayingForWeightLoss I am worried about starting this on the weekend. Will have to think of ways to occupy my mind.

I am the 28th too! I hope the weekend went well for you. Last weekend was rough for me too. I spent the whole day thinking about food. I made sure I stayed really active this weekend. I made it all about me.... mani pedi and a 2 hour massage. Got my nails a lovey shade of blue that should match my hospital gown [emoji2]

Hi all.. my op is tomorrow. Just wondering if anyone here cheated on their pre-op diet?
I took a couple of bites of my sister's fish burger yday and another bite of my husband's burger. Now i feel so bad and worried [emoji30]
I did lose about 5 kg for the past week, mostly prob Water weight.

Smart!

Overall it was a success: 5 lbs lost, minimal headache/discomfort, and slept a lot. I event went to my nephew's birthday party and watched my whole family eat pizza right next to me. That was........ torture. But I stayed strong.

Good luck this week and Friday! I followed you so we can keep track of each other :)

Hello Nora. I ate a boiled egg yesterday. I think we should be fine. Not cheating anymore ...lol. Hope everything goes well for you. I am Friday morning.




All the best for your op! Im 2 days post op and getting discharged this evening. They had to keep reminding me to drink more Water and walk more. Looking forward to a speedy recovery!

I totally love this idea! Im on Aug 3rd tho. (Close enough). Knowing someone else is going through the same thing as i am gives me relief. You are about to have your surgery tomorrow (if the dates are correct). Are you scared? I know I'm a bit afraid and I'm 5 days away.

      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!
