Been almost a week since I've updated. As this liquid diet is progressing I've become more crabby and had more cravings. I have lost 18lbs though.

These last 2 days is clear liquid and I have no idea how I'm gonna do it. I have this Isopure drink and it has a terrible after taste. I can only imagine that this is what gasoline tastes like.

Gotta get my bag packed. Still no clue what time I need to be there. Apparently they don't call until the day before.

@ Thank you!

I got the call the afternoon, be at the surgery center at 6:30, and my surgery is at 8:30. In about 14 hours I will be sleeved. I'm so scared!

But my husband will be there the whole time so that helps me calm a little. Gonna go get my bag packed!

I should have brought headphones. Listening to people slurp on coffee and chew gum is going to make me lose my damn mind.

      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!
