So what is the post-surgery diet like from Curry?

The pre-surgery diet from curry is either 1-4 weeks depending on your BMI. Mine was 2 weeks of Medifast. Honestly, I found those 2 weeks the most difficult because my body was going through detox and I was so hungry. But, I lost 14 lbs., so that keeps you motivated. Drink lots of water!

lol..I just noticed I said pre-opt and I meant post-opt. I still get confused with wording things!!

Post op for me was 1 week of Clear Liquids, broth, shakes and the like. Then after you get your 1st checkup then to puree for 3 weeks, then soft foods. Puree is anything you can blend up into baby food consistancy. soft foods are pretty much anything you can "mash" with a fork where the food comes thru the tins of the fork, so like salisbury steak in small bites, soft meatloaf, chicken in a crock pot with cream of chicken Soup, stuff like that. Remember Protein first 60-80 grams a day, 20-40 carbs a day and 64 oz of liquids a day. Good Luck

Thought I would update. Surgery is set for April 8th one month from today. I start my pre-opt diet Sunday. I have to do 4 weeks. I also have to lose 20 lbs. I'm worried I won't. That's 5 lbs a week. I've been on the 2 and 3 diet for 3 months lost 60 lbs. I'm hoping I will lose this next 20.

Hey everyone on here. I'm in southeastern IN, but I'll be going to Cincy for my surgery with Dr. Brad Watkins. I'm nervous, and will probably have to wait for six months to do a doctor approved diet thing, but that's okay. Deep inside I know this is what I need to do, but who wants to think about what's going to be done! Not me, I'm a nurse! I do my level best not to even think about what happens during the procedure as it will just make me crazy going over the details!

Hello healthygal,

I'm scheduled for surgery jan 22, with same doctor. Excited, anxious & nervous to say the least. Pushing through my 2 week pre op liquid fast. I have 4 kids and am a stay at home mama, so it is far from easy!! Just wanted to reach out to you and others getting sleeved (or other surgeries!) & shout out good luck! ;)

      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!
