I'm lucky my surgeon is only making me do the liquid diet the day before surgery.

I went through Kaiser Fremont. My surgery was with Dr. Hahn on May 17, 2011. I've been at goal for almost 18 months. I only had to do liquid the day before pre-op. I followed the pre-op diet in our plan book for the months before surgery. And I pretty much use that diet at goal too, with a few extra treats thrown in.

Jessica, I was scared before surgery too. I will be thinking of you on the 10th! Use the time pre-op to run errands, pay bills, clean house, and stock up on staple items for your household. Also, if you have a DVR, record some movies and if you like to read, get some books. It's nice to have something waiting for you at home for the times you don't feel like doing much.

      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!
