How are you drinking four shakes a day? I'm not hungry really since I've started this diet. I know I should be drinking more shakes but I can only get two in. I need to drink all day long.

Will you be going to the support group meetings?

I tried but got the date wrong. I work out of state a lot so it's hard for me to be available mid week. The Dr. Said it would be ok since he saw i did try to make it to at least one. I also showed him I'm a part of several online support groups!

Tomorrow is the start of my liquid diet. I will be on it for 2 weeks. I'm nervous. Any advice from someone that has been on the liquid diet already?

I've been to one meeting. I wasn't impressed. Other than that my overall experience has been great. Are you doing the Optifast diet?

I have to share...I'm waiting on a flight i have for a quick business trip...plane for a few hours. I normally pay for the extra legroom and especially hip room! I have this wonder in my mind...will I need the same space (legroom maybe) on my next business trip next year!?!? My sleeve story starts now..and surgery on the Oct21... It's definitely some of the small things that continue to inspire me!!!

No you will not need the .extra room! Remember when you didn't weigh what you way now and how you were comfortable in the airplane seat? Plus, seats are smaller than before. My sleeve is on Oct. 22. You brought up a great inspiration.

      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!

    • buildabetteranna

      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!
