This is fantastic, there are more June dates than I thought there would be. I had my date months ago, so I was waiting and waiting, I seen all the April buddies, then the May buddies and finally US (JUNE). This experience is going to be here before we know it, the time has just been flying by for me.

What does everyone have to do as far as a pre-op diet and for how long? I have a 10 day pre-op diet that I start on May 29 and it's just low carb, high Protein, thank god NOT liquid!

Opti-fast diet for two weeks starting June 8. Four shakes a day, one cup of broth and sugar free Jello and Popsicles. That's it for two weeks. I hear it's rough but I don't want my liver getting in the way so shrink away. I should be working on that now but I am busy saying farewell to some bad foods that I will not bring back into my life after this surgery.

Now that the June people are posting it does seem so close and so real. Wishing you all well and that we stay in touch!

      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!
