Hey Volley girl! :). I start the pre-op liquid diet on 11/4. I can have Protein Shakes, limited Tomato Soup and oatmeal during this time also so I don't think it will be too bad! I'm in Iowa, 5'9. - 310 with a 160 goal. Only lost 7lbs so far on my own, but hoping the liquid phase will kick start a loss! Lord I hope this works for me!!

I am November 11. Grateful that it is a Monday and I have Sunday evening to prepare. I am getting a bit emotional as each step is completed. I am looking forward to surgery and results that will make me lighter an my feet and help with pain in back, hip, knees and ankles. I know it can't cure arthritis but it can certainly alleviate some discomfort.

Hi :). I'm Jan. Getting sleeved in TJ at the OCC Nov 25th. My starting weight was 345, got it down to 331 as of yesterday. I start the liquid diet on nov 7th, I am worried about the diet but know it is for the best. I am heading to TJ with 2 friends, we are all getting sleeved. We all play roller derby in northern Alberta, I can't wait to get this weight off so I can fly around the track!

      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!
