I understand! Surgery is scary! I pray for peace and try to deep breathe when the stress hits me.

My scheduler told me to expect late June or early july , and include still up in the air about what surgery I’m going to have bypass or sleeve I have until next week to decide 🤪 . It’s getting real, by the way I’m in San Diego

I am hoping to get a date in July in the next week or so. All of my paperwork is done, I have lost my required 15 pounds, I am a teacher so I hope to have surgery and recover, and at least have a good start getting into a good routine before school starts again.

Hi Coco! I’m booked in for 24th July for my lapband! Would love to chat to you and anyone else booked for July! Have you all started your pre op diets yet? I started mine today. Feeling hungry and tired. How is everyone else feeling?

I have been dieting for a few months. I am 30 pounds down. My surgeon does not require a liquid diet before surgery, we just have to stick to a 1400 calorie plan. It’s been pretty easy to do. All of my pre-op stuff is next week. I am excited.

Remember to change things up a little with your Water , Try Propel or Nestle Splash flavors, they are no calorie. Try herbal tea. Hate room temprature water, I do, Try it chilled instead. Drop a few m8nt leaves in, Try Mio or Crystal flavorings. One of my friends drinks sugar free Jello while it's still liquid, stranger than me. And remember sometimes when you think you are hungry, you may be thirsty instead.

      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!
