June 25th is my day of surgery. Is anyone else going to have surgery that day! I am currently on the liquid diet and I am struggling.

My surgery is set for 6/20. I am struggling with my preop diet. I kind of feel I would be better off if I were restricted to liquid only. I am doing two Protein Shakes to replace two meals and then 4 oz of lean Protein. I am limited to 1 cup of fruit and as many green veggies as I want. I'm getting nervous!

I was Banded on May 1 and I understand what you guys are going thru, The liquid diet was a pain for me. My advice to you guys is to keep your mind busy and my sugar free popsicles your best friend. Good luck to everyone.

      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!
