So... bad news... they pushed my surgery out 2 days to August 14. Good news, that means I don’t start liquid diet until tomorrow. I’ve been doing a hardcore food funeral for like over a month. It’s to the point where I almost find the foods I’m choosing gross at this point. Anywho, I’ve been noticing the way I talk about the surgery to friends... I joke about it like “oh, starting tomorrow I can’t ever eat again” or like “it’s the last time I can have ice cream” or “in the future when I’m starving myself” .... they are jokes but not really jokes. They are my fears about what the future would be. Have any of you been having these fears and what do you do to combat them?

I’ll be going in tomorrow 8/1 🙂. Sometimes I miss the California sunshine until I remember those 90+ summer days.

My surgery date is August 12!! I’m getting RNY and am seriously scared. Also excited, obviously. My liquid diet starts on July 29 and there are literally no solid foods allowed except sugar free Jello. I’m going to be honest I’m having a serious food funeral, not even trying to watch what I eat. I realize this probably isn’t the healthiest approach. 😳😳😳😳
Hi Annie! Im August 12 too!!! Best of luck to you! How’s your pre-op diet going?

      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!
