Brush your teeth every time you feel the urge to eat! Nothing taste good with a minty fresh mouth. Do not jeopardize your surgery for a craving. You have come so far don't stop now!! The liquid diet is hard and if it were easy we wouldn't need weight loss surgery would we? I know it is hard having that internal struggle but you can beat it!! Do not let food control you anymore, you got this!!

Just when you want to give up, think about all the work that went into this process. I know it is hard, but anything hard is always worth it in the long run. If you need a change in what you are drinking try GNC Lean 25 shakes. They have 200 calories for 2 scoops and I usually only use one. Very filling and absolutely delicious. Maybe changing things up will help the craving to cheat. Just remember, you can do this and we are all here to help support you. Just think of it as a marriage. You're new lifestyle is a "til death do you part" situation.

Hello, With your surgeon does Clear Liquids mean only Water? With mine it means light liquids not any milk products and no red dye. I must drink Gatorade the last thing before 12 midnight.

You are only two days out! This is amazing for you! This is the last total crap diet you will ever have to face alone, without your sleeve to help! Believe me, post op can have different kinds of challenges, but there was nothing more challenging for me than pre-op, in terms of my head continuing its wicked, whiny little snot-nosed cry to "feed me!" Your next phase will be a wild success!

I know exactly how you feel! I'm on day 4 of 7 and yesterday was really bad. I'm supposed to be on liquids only, but I caved and ate a can of white meat chicken with some hot sauce (weird combo, I know). I chewed it until it was almost gone and it IS pure Protein with no carbs, so I guess it wasn't as bad as it could have been. I still feel guilty though.

Stay strong! You're so close. Don't jeopardize it now. Think of being slimmer and feeling better - that's the only thing that's been keeping me sane!

Thank you for the motivation :) I'm really starting to realize just how dependent I am on food. This process is painful physically & mentally. But I CAN DO THIS!! ( gonna keep repeating that to myself ;) )

So I feel like I've gotta eat a salad or something.. I've been doing 80 ounces of Water a day, Protein Shakes & little bits of granola, if I feel myself getting light headed. But I have never craved a salad & grilled chkn breast like I do at this moment. I get my sleeve on 4/25/14... I feel like I need to eat NOW :(

      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!
