And when do you do your pre op diet ? After you turn everything in or after you meet with your nutritionist?

I'm 5 weeks post op. If anything I go to the bathroom less. Have to take stool softeners now. I think I donets pee as much because I'm not drinking caffeine now. I was a big diet dr pepper drinker. So far I haven't lost cup size but back fat has gone down so bras are not tight now.

I started my 2 week preop once I was approved by my insurance company and had my surgery date. Some surgeons require more time based on your bmi. Some dont require preop diet at all.

No my moms friend told me to try the stool softeners. They are not harsh. My dr recommended Miralax. I may get some of that but was afraid that it would make me gag.

You will eventually lose boobs. Some more than others. It depends on how much is fat or real boob. It sounds funny but true. I've lost about 75 pounds before and went from a d to a c plus a much smaller band size. :-)

Never a stupid or dumb question :)

Remember that the key to weight loss is pretty much a simple math equation decreased intake increased output. This just means that you take in less calories and burn more calories resulting in a net loss.

Just performing everyday functions your body burns calories. After surgery most people struggle to get in even 800-1000 calories a day and on liquids your probably only getting 400 or so. This means your burning more calories than your taking in so you "burn fat". Your body begins to burn your fat stores for energy. This is where your fat goes :). Unfortunately at first you will also lose some muscle as your burning too much too fast but dont worry!! Just get your Protein in.

Hope this answered your question :)

      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.

        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!
