So eat a taco...why not? As long as you aren't on liquids or mushys, eat a taco....I had one for lunch Wednesday. I had the one I couldn't eat for supper, yum.

if u havent had them since surgery..be careful. i had my first one after my first fill, and well, the shell caused me to get stuck. i know it wasnt the meat cuz i had taco meat prior to that and was fine. If you can stop at just one, you may be ok..but tacos are kinda like chips, at least for me, i want more than one lol. Good thing i got stuck or i would have had more than one.

You are only putting yourself at risk. The pre-op diet is meant to clear your liver of fat to make the surgery safer for you. By clearing the liver, it is smaller and easier to maneuver around. The instruments they use to hold onto it don't slip off as easily, because the outer coating of fat is also gone.

Keep your focus on your upcoming surgery. You can do this.

I'm sorry, but this is about as immature and irresponsible as it gets.

If you want support, ask for it. But to say if no one responds in a certain amount of time you're doing it? Like some threat almost? Seriously, this is downright stupid. Either take this surgery seriously and do what you know is necessary or just walk away now but posts like this are ridiculous.

Your on your pre op diet, please try try try to NOT eat that taco. The basis is to get the size of your liver down, and if you keep with the diet you should be fine for them to do the surgery. Think of how you will feel if they open you up/ then close you right up because your liver did not shrink in size! Think of those feelings vs what the couple minutes of the taco heaven is like! After your banded and on regular food, then give the taco a whirl if you really want it. That is my suggestion.

Im on a low carb diet, so I only ate the meat, so I am ok..... Sorry, but sometimes I need someone to knock some sense in me. The poeple around me just say its ok, that won't hurt. Thank you all

I didn't mean to sound like that..... It is just harder when you are with people that are always trying to tell you not to get the LB.. I do take it very serious.

      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!
