February 16th is the day????



Recommended Posts

Hello all, February 16th the day I am to change my life for the better!

I am getting nervous and really starting to realize how much I miss eating food now that I'm on the pre-opt diet. I never knew I could smell everything????

The first three days of this diet was extremely difficult????????

Considering I was a yo-yo with my weight and eating habits this should be a breeze but it is a struggle ????

I need to really change my relationship with food????

I can't wait for the big day, so I think I'm so nervous about everything

Hi Matida!

I understand your feelings! I will start my preop diet Wednesday.....the day my husband is getting sleeved ????! My date is Feb 25. I am starting to realize the importance of this forum and possibly the support group that my hospital offers in getting past some potential issues. You mentioned needing to change your relationship with food - that is exactly what my husband and I are talking about.....food has been our social existence for EVER! It's time to develop other relationships and unthinkin we can all help each other with that! Best of luck to you. Keep us posted on your surgery and how you are doing!! ????????

      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?

        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.
