All the best to you. My surgery is Friday! I am excited and a little scared but I want to have a great experience like so many have reported here. I wish that for you too!

Hey i was just reading over the blog! Thanks for the list on when everyone's surgery day is that is wonderful. I initially was scheduled for june 4th then my dr had a emergency and it got moved 5 days before my surgery. I was so sad but what can you do right. Well i ended up having my surgery on june 11th. It went great and i feel good. I have started pureed diet today and was abke to have scrambled eggs, cottage cheese, and chicken pureed. They were amazing. Went and seen my dietitian today and i am down 30 pounds since i started the whole process last november. 10 pounds on supervised diet, 15 pounds on liquid diet, and 5 pounds post-op. I feel great. Good luck to all the june bandsters as well!

My surgery is tomorrow. Clear liquid diet all day today. I thought I'd have a hard time cooking Breakfast for the kiddos, but so far I'm totally fine. I've lost 6 pounds since Sunday on Protein Shakes and a light meal. Hope to keep that ball rollin'!!!

Hope all the June Bandsters are still doing well...and those waiting, good luck! I'm scheduled for tomorrow so super excited! How long did you all take off work? I didn't want work to know so I've just taken off tomorrow and Friday, going back Monday to my desk job. If I don't feel too well I figure I can take Monday and/or Tuesday and then Wednesdays and Thursdays I work from home.

Congrats and good luck everyone...

Day 14 of a 21 day shake diet...I think I might ascend to a higher plane soon. Has anybody else ever heard of a 21 day pre-op diet???

Also, I'm baking an enormo kid's birthday cake today, to be shaped like a purple hippo. Groaaaan.

Repeat after me, "Christine, you will NOT lick any spoons or taste any single thing. You already know the flavour since you have made all these thigns a million times."

      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!

    • buildabetteranna

      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!
