I am about to have surgery soon. And would love to achieve your success. Would like to know how was your pre op diet? Any Protein shakes you would recommend? What was your starting weight? How tall are you? Where are you from? How old are you? How has the loose skins been for you? Thank you for taking the time to answer these questions

Well my 2 week pre op diet was 2 shakes and a low carb meal I usually just ate a salad or meat and veggies. The Protein Shakes I recommend are body fortress from Walmart. If u mix them with unsweetened almond or soy milk it's 30 g Protein per serving and they're only $15 for a 2 lb tub. My starting weight when I went to the doc for the first time was 267 this at the start of my 6 month supervised diet. I'm 5'3 1/2 lol from Orlando. As far as loose skin... Now that I'm losing faster I do see some problem areas. I do strength training with light weights, Zumba, Pilates and I have my own recipe for moisturizing and stretch marks. This one is up in the air tho I guess only time will tell how my skin reacts but I know I'm doing all I possibly can to help it.

      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!
