Did you exercise when you were on the Pre-Op diet?



Recommended Posts

I didn't exercise until I came home from the hospital. I was to busy eating...Last Supper Syndrome.

Hey Sheila, I'm doing that too! I start the pre-op on Monday. I think it serves its purpose because I am getting so sick of all these sugary, fat laden foods!

BTW - you are doing great!

Thank you! I know what you mean, I must admit I got tired of ALL the eating! Some days I wish I could eat one meal like before, I mean without all the chewing and chewing and chewing!

Yeah I wonder about that too. I am not a very good chewer and I have tried "practising", but then get bored of it and give up! Also, I find when you have to chew so much, the food loses its taste.

I did the same...I get grossed out sometimes from all the chewing. I eat more soft foods and drink a lot of Water, Crystal Light and juice. I'm scared because I don't get my Protein in:eek: .

Well, Protein is important but look how well you are doing!!!!! 5 lbs to Onderland!!! you rock. So do you exercise now? what do you do?

Thanks! Yes I workout everyday. On Mon and Tues I do strength training and toning and I walk 3 1/2 miles on Tues, Thurs, Sat and Sun at this VERY hilly park. If it rains I walk 2 miles on my treadmill on those days...I love the outside, so getting on the treadmill is a hassle:( .

That's fabulous. I worked out 5 days a week last year when I was losing weight. I will definitely try my best this time.

That is the culprit to my weight loss! I'm sure you will.

My hubby works out of town a lot and no children YET, but my dog Buddy just plays. So it is different for me.

Then this is a great time in your life to be doing this. I know there are lots of people in my situation - I just have to make it a priority. The nice things is as the weather gets better here in Toronto (Canada), we will get out our bikes and go for rides together.

What kind of dog is Buddy?

That sound really good, I want a bike. I have an exercise bike, but I never use it. Buddy is a Schnauzer mixed with Shitzu. He is EXTREMELY smart.

      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!
