I'm HUNGRY! I will be so glad when the pre-op diet is over I won't know what to do. I will be happy when 11/6 gets here. I am a little anxious but definitley not going to change my mind I have come to far for that.

I've come too far to change my mind as well. I'm not having too much hunger...I drink lots of propel Water in between. I'm so thirsty all the time now. Make ure you get enough Protein, it will drive the hunger away.

I am freeking out! Lol ( nov 5th here)

Well, we can freak out together LOL!

I think I'll freak on the drive....I have a 2 1/2 hour drive to San Antonio Tx, for my surgery. I'm looking forward to my meal tonight : ) I drink 2 shakes and then a tiny meal for dinner. It has to be less than 300 calories ,17 grams of Protein and no more than 40 carbs. I sometimes have a sugar free Jello to help curb appetite.

Wow, I as the same. I never wanted to leave my children with anyone. I know how you feel. They will be okay :) Maybe try to think about how much better your life with them will be after surgery. I'm sure we will live longer LOL! I dont have my surgery time yet but am guessing it will be at 10 am. I bet i too will have to leave by 3:30. I have my pre-op visit on Monday. Im anxious to get the details and see what my after surgery instructions will be. I'm taking my IPad to the hospital and will post from there. Nice talking to you !

Hi ! Are you drinking enough Protein ? I get to have sugar free Jello and do use it if i get a bit hungry before my next shake . I try to not watch tv and that helps.....Are you going to post from the hospital to let us know how you are? Do you know how many days you will stay there? Thank for responding !

      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!
