Pre Op Diet Heacache!



Recommended Posts

How are you feeling today Barbara and Gloria? Hopefully this will soon pass and you'll feel better. . .

thinoneday,

I'm doing great today. Thanks! The headache was horrible, but this morning when I woke up it was gone. Things are going along smoothly with the diet also. My hubby is following it along with me. He's been so supportive and helpful. He wants to drop some weight also, so he's going to just follow along with healthy eating which makes it much easier for me.

How are things for you? Do you have your date set yet?

Hi Barb, actually i was sleeved on 12/29. . .so being 8 days out. . . i'm still on Clear Liquids until thursday. . i go to the doctor that day to get a check up, weighed and then i have to go to nutrition class to learn how to advance to the next level of nutrition. . and then after that class i go to an exercise class to learn how to exercise i guess. . . but let me tell you, after you start feeling good and have only broth, Water, Jello, and popsicles to "eat" you tend to go a bit nutty. . . my glucose dropped to 69 last night (i'm not diabetic), i was sweaty, and really irratable, so i increased my jello to 2 cups and 2 popsicles. . . had some tea with honey and felt soooooooo much better. . . after a couple took my glucose test again and it went up to 72. . . so that was better. . . can't wait to get off this clear liquid thing and get some other stuff in. . . . 1 more day! aggggghhhhhh. . . .

I am so glad I don't drink coffee I don't think I could handle a caffiene AND carb headache at the same time.

Is anyone else having issues with memory or cognition.

      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.

      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!
