Third day seems to be the hardest for most folks, and was for me. I had a two week pre-op diet. After that, it got a lot better.

Best wishes.

I've been on the pre op diet since last week. The afternoon and evening seem to be the hardest. But, no pain no gain right? :)

I was like that also, NUT said get G2 Gatorade the G2 is low calorie. I drank a small one and didn't feel light headed anymore.

^^^^......what she said or Vitamin Water Zero. The electrolytes help with the grumpy, weak and headaches.

I cried day 3-5. I had no energy....no one explained to me that this would happen. If I had known in advance, it would have been much easier.

Also, can anyone tell me how I can get that cute little BMI/Weight marker that most have at the bottom of their post?

Thanks.

I am waking up with a headache so bad that it feels someone hit me with a bat. I have been taking motrin or Migraine exedrin everyday. Really starting to second guess this whole thing.

Glad to know I'm not the only one who's cranky and cold. I'm on day 4 of 14 not hungry though luckily. I'm on a strict only liquid diet. I just feel super thirsty and almost dehydrated even with all the Water I'm drinking. Anyone feel like this? Thanks!

      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!
