How are you doing? All liquid is hard!

Thankfully I don't have to do the all liquid diet. I have to do 2 Protein Shakes and 2 low carb meals a day. No white breads or refined sugars. It's hard but i know it's nowhere near as hard as all liquids! Keep pushing! We're almost there!

Well happy happy birthday huni.. Sorry that you are feeling icky.. But look at it this way you are on the losers bench and around for another great year. Splurge a little by going to GNC and getting you some cake batter flavored protein.. Get dolled up and go out on the town with girlfriends.. Hope your day gets better

So I had surgery on the 12th, weighing 304, home on the 14th weighing 316. The weight has been dropping and today I'm 299. I haven't been under 300 in over 20 years. It's so strange to see a 2 at the beginning of my weight.

August 27th for me! Start all liquids today....Just had a strawberry "Muscle Milk" OMG HORRIBLE! Soup with Protein powder next. I hope it is better :rolleyes:

In my humble opinion, any strawberry Protein Drink is the worst!!! I stuck to vanilla an then buy the sugar free Torani syrups to add to them.

Well, it's official. I'm sleeved. I just passed my swallow test and have moved up to Clear Liquids. It sure is hard to sleep in the hospital. Hope I get to go home today.

Praying for all my August sleeve buddies. Wishing you all smooth recoveries.

To my August 19th buddies, hope all went well. One day at a time for recover.

      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?

        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!
