I have 5 days left before I get my sleeve. I have been doing well on my pre-op diet and it has not been as difficult as thought. I have lost 39lbs since June 2, 2010 and I am know that my doctor will be very suprised when I weigh in on July 2, 2010.

DANG. Go ahead with your baaad self. Seriously excellent job. Question. Are you saying you will have been on your preop diet for a month when you have your surgery? If so that is awesome!!!! Best of wishes for a smooth operation and a speedy recovery. I see you're very dedicated to this new lifestyle and I feel you will do great. Keep us updated.

What was your pre-op diet like? It certainly looks like it worked! I'm just starting my 2-week pre-op diet (2 shakes and an Atkins-type dinner). I hope I can lose as much as you--our BMIs are pretty close.

I was given the Protein Shakes on June 2, 2010. I started using the shakes the next day just so I could get in a routine. I did not use the shakes constantly until two weeks before my surgery. I am glad I started early because my BMI was very high.

I am with the Davis Clinic and they have their own version of the Protein Shake. It works very well and it has all the Vitamins and minerals that I need.

      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!
