1 Week Post Op Down 22 Pounds!



Recommended Posts

I am one week post op today. I lost 10 pounds on my 8 day pre op liquid diet. I lost 12 pounds post op for a total of 22 pounds! Hurray for me! I am super happy but worried for the day I get on the scale and nothing! I know, I know.... One day at a time. I only wish my brain could remember that! Power to the sleevers:)

Thanks guys! I can only have liquids right now: skim milk, low fat creamy Soups, Water, tea, sugar free hot chocolate, sugar free ice cream, Protein Shakes. I am having trouble drinking the Protein shakes. They're just not sitting well so I have milk instead. I know I'm not getting the 60 grams of protein in but my doc said for these 2 weeks do the best you can and stay hydrated! So, one day at a time. I expect when I get to the purée and soft solid stages the weight may not come off as fast but we'll see. It's not easy. I pretty much want a cheeseburger EVERYDAY! I keep fighting the good fight :)

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      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?
