One week Post op. lost 12 LBS!!!!!



Recommended Posts

What can you have for the first few weeks. My wife and I go to Monterrey Oct 4th. Is it clear liquids. Just wondering what to buy and have in the house for then we return. I have one real vice. I drink diet dr. Pepper 18 per day. Trying to cut back before surgery. Do you have any other suggestions.

You will now be able to have Dr. pepper any more. Anything carbonated will hurt your new pouch. Switch to crystal light I love that. The peach ice tea is the best. Cream of brocolli Soup you can have. Suger free popcicles and fugecicles. Those new yougert drinks or yougert. Jello chicken broth. That is basically what I have been eating.

Hi,

Congratulations on your upcoming banding. Every Dr. has a different diet for post op. Mine let me have any liquids, blended Soups, yogurt drinks, juice. No pop, in fact I just plain quit drinking it! Applesauce and other blended fruits were ok, milkshakes or diet shakes were ok too.

Good Luck, you'll love it!!!

There hasent been any redness around them or anything which is good.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      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?
