Thank you. Its a whole new way of living. Retraining my way of thinking about nourishment. Looking foward to the challenge.

My pre-op was 4 weeks. 2 weeks liquid & 1 meal then 2 more weeks only liquid. It can be difficult but is tolerable. You all got this!

Mine was the same for week one then the second week was 2 shakes, one high Protein meal. I “mostly” did it. Good luck I’m 8 days post op and feeling great 14 pounds lighter.

Good idea! Thank you, I think I will! [emoji175] my surgery is Monday and I cannot wait! I am having my gastric band revised to a sleeve. I just got these adorable pillows in today just in time for my surgery! I’m going to be using them as stomach pillows for when I need to cough or sneeze or laugh.

Those are so cute! You will do great! My surgery was last Wednesday. I weighed 254.2 the day after. Today I weighed myself and I’m down to 242.6! Not bad for one week.

They’re from a person on Etsy. She hand makes them and will personalize them with different faces and whatever you want to put on the back, name, surgery date, etc... and they come in various colors. I love them! [emoji5]

January 22 for me can't wait. Have been going through the process for 6 months. My husband and son are both sick all week hoping I don't catch it before the big day ! Have a little bit of the sniffles


I also went the 22nd. I'm home. Got home Around 4 yesterday. I'm here alone and pretty sore. I'm having trouble with Water and this swirling thing that happens in my abdomen (don't know how to describe it). I'm scared to take the Percocet prescribed for fear of nausea. I'm starting to sip a Protein Shake. I'm on clear liquids 1 week the. Regular liquids for. 4. How are you feeling.
Sorry sounds like a ramble

      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!
