Today is my third day without COFFEE! Ugh, good luck. It's killing me, but gets better. Figured I would quit before my pre op diet starts.

It gets easier! It was smart to quit coffee before the pre op diet starts, I too did the same thing and had headaches for four days! Good luck to you :)

I know huh! Huge headaches as I was decreasing the caffeine. But now I'm just having slight headaches during the day. I should get my surgery date next week and I didn't want to deal with this and the pre op diet. Lol :)

My surgeon wanted me to quit caffeine two weeks before the surgery. You definitely cannot have any post-op. it can cause ulcers and dehydration.

It seems like so many people have problems with the band! Glad you are getting it taken care of.

      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!

        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.

      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!
