Pre op diet and short fuse?



Recommended Posts

Has anyone else noticed they are dead tired and have a very short fuse while on pre-op???? Today is day 7 and if you have been near me, looked at me, or if I think you looked at me I'm grumpy. No it's not PMS. Worse.

I definitely had that when I was on the pre-op diet! I was just so hungry a good deal of the time, I think it's nearly impossible not to get grumpy! Hang in there though - you'll make it, and it'll be worth it! :)

This is why I took the week after surgery as a vacation. I knew that I would be a bear on a liquid diet, and my doc's protocol called for a full week of Clear Liquids post-op. Thankfully - nobody got hurt, I had plenty of time to adjust and by the time the week was over, so was my grumpiness. Never has a Protein Shake been so appreciated as when the doc said "Stage 2 for you!".

I notice that I am very tired...and maybe a little snappy but I am trying hard to take in this experience with some level of excitement so I dont get fearful.

      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!
