So near but yet feels so far away! Everyday I fight the urge to eat everything I shouldn't but I want this soooooo bad so I'll keep fighting

Hold strong, you can do this !! Think of all the things you will be able to do that you can't now????????

That's so close you can smell it!!

I have my endoscopy that day..

How's the pre op diet going?

1st few days were horrible... Lol headache, cranky, hungry. Once that passed I have been really good. I just think that I am soooo ready. I' been thinking about this seriously for 5 years, I went to this doctor 5 years ago and decided not to do the bypass because of my medical issues ( I have Ulcerative Colitis, ugh) now that the sleeve is a proven safe method I jumped back in. Started in May for my monthly visits and now I have 2 days left????. Aren't you just bursting with anticipation. I might actually be able to bend down and paint my toe nails by 2015!!!! Lol

My surgery is tomorrow 9/15/14. Started the liquid diet yesterday and had no idea how hungry I would be. I have two active kids that I was running around all day and the headache was crazy. Today is much better. Hanging around the house getting all the laundry done before tomorrow.

I'm 42 250 pounds and about 5'7. My goal weight for myself is 155. I would love buddies to keep in touch with as this journey begins!!!!

I only have to do the two days for pre op. I'm not going to lie it's not a good time. It's doable but be prepared to be hungry.

I tried some premix broth from costco yesterday and couldn't do it. I might add some Water to it and give it a go.

My surgery isn't until 4pm tomorrow! UGH! So excited for you. I am not great at the twitter but I will have plenty of time tomorrow to look into it. Best of luck tomorrow!

      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!
