My surgery is set for july 29. Mydoctors do not believe in a pre-op diet. Nutritionists says drink every hour after surgery. I'm getting nervous. I usually inhale food.< /p>

I'm a married guy in his 50's from Delaware, but I was told the pre-op diet was to shrink the liver so it is less likely to be cut accidentally during surgery !! My Dr. even said that he would not do my surgery if I didn't follow that diet to the T . He said he has woke patients up before because the liver needed to shrink more, I didn't want to be woke up, so I followed the diet !!!!! :)

Thats the place to be in the summer !!!! I had a day before pre op diet as well.. i had asked my nut at one of my meetings with her and she said my dr. just wanted his patients to lose the set weight loss he asked of us the say of our initital consultation.. which was only 10 pounds..and that was for the duration of 3 months.. i TRIED to do low cal low carbs .. some days were better then others.. i feel like if you make little changes now during your process you will do fine! Also i know for me after my surgery.. it was tough just drinking every hour.. i had no desire for food ( and i watched the food network as well) for about a week or so..

      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!
