My pre op diet starts soon. I don’t like that my brain wants me to eat allll the food because after the pre diet it’s the surgery. Which means new lifestyle.


Does anyone else have this issue?

I had the same issue. I wanted all the foods lol but you’re right it’s a lifestyle change. I had surgery the 6th and it made me realize how much and how often I was eating insane amounts of food. The food restriction is a huge mental game. Even now I’m not hungry but my brain tells me I am and had cravings. We call it head hunger. But don’t worry. I encourage you to indulge your last few days before the liquid diet. It’s honestly really hard so enjoy your last unhealthy supper ;)

Hey everyone - I’m this coming morning in Manhattan- just have insomnia. I also have gastroparesis which makes this interesting. But I want this. Really hope it works out!

Had surgery June 5th, I'm starting to have pain whenever I drink or eat anything, like a sharp pain as the Water flows down. But for the first time in a while I was just able to drink some juice with no pain. And I'm like 12 days out and wondering about my stitches, also I think I'm getting to addicted to the binder. It sucks in my belly so I'm afraid to stop wearing it

35 lbs down 😁

Sorry to hear about your gastroparesis. What advice did your doctor give you to deal with this condition?

I haven't weighed myself once since I started my pre-op diet or even after my gastric bypass surgery four days ago.

      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!
