I may be going crazy!

I'm actually considering trying a 'liquid diet for a day' to practice for my 2 week pre-op diet...

It's not a bad thing! I slowly added my shakes to a replace my Breakfast then a week before just had 2 shakes and dinner, so when pure liquids came I was okay with it and not starving, helped me lose 32lbs prior and had a completely uncomplicated surgery !

I don't think the "liquid" part is hard...for me, it was finding low calorie liquids! I don't like any of the artificial sweetners, so I did a lot of watered down juice, Gatorade, etc.

I added Protein Shakes to replace meals. With that and the food log for the NUT, I lost 20 pounds before surgery and have had no complications.

you also might try the sugar free popcicles and no sugar added fruit pops.

      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?
