I can't take this preop liquid diet anymore. 1 week 2 days in and all I want to do is putting something in my mouth i can chew. Like real food not an ice pop. The shakes are making me gag. Sorry just had to vent!

I was dying on the pre-op and asked my doc if I could have some snack food and he said since I had lost 10lbs in four days I could have olives, almonds, or baked chicken. That was a life saver but I only did it after consulting him first and because I had lost so much already on the pre-op diet.

I've lost 10lbs in 9 days. I'm going to call and ask bc I can't take it. I don't even want to eat and I know that's bad.

I'm on day 3 of the pre op all clear liquid except 4 - 4oz Protein shakes. I have lost 7lbs and that's all that's keeping me going. Your almost there!!! It's going to pay off in the end.

      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.

        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!
