The powder is 20 grams and the pre made is 17. It's EAS edge carb control. My doc did not give us a total in a day we needed. Just liquid and to do 4 a day.

Yep, no special pre op here. Just liquid diet for 14 days. Any kind if Protein shake, sf Jello, broth , any type of low or zero cal drink. At what you paid I won't complain. Lol. What I paid if for 2 of us!!!! What will you do post op? Can u choose a Protein Drink of ur choice then?

Btw, the ESA carb control was yummy. Had zero grit or after taste. Think it will be my best friend.

Ready to change my life!

      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!
