Ok, so I've been keeping up to date with you all and am impressed with your results.

So much so that, beginning Monday (Aus time), I'm gonna have a crack at 5 days on liquids..

I'll do my pre-op Soups, as I have some left over, along with my Protein drinks...

I'm happy to allow myself a couple of spoons of yougurt in the evening, but that'll be it..

To all those of you who have done or are doing this, thank you very little for inspiring me to do such a crazy thing... :mellow:

@ They say they don't want you using them because you can suck air in...blah blah blah. I do fine with them and my suregon said its ok. So I don't care what "they" say. :)

@@KindaFamiliar Well I'm glad we inspired you to be crazy! If it gets bad just remember it's wasn't my fault!!

On the contrary @@Elode

In the event of my mind disappearing completely, you, and you alone, shall be held accountable for my mental passing...

Alas, I feel that nobody will even notice the difference between me now and me having lost all faculties...

Oh the joys of being me...

Can cause bloating, which was what my doctor told me. It took a while to get use to the whole no drinking and no drinking with straws but Its one of those few things that kinda stuck from day one with me.

ohkay - I'm more then sure that this has been asked, but why no straws - for me it makes it easier to sip if I have a straw then without... mind you - i've probably read the answer somewhere else as well, but I don't remember it :(

@@wannaBthinsoon Yes, much restriction! I had good before but I didn't even get in 2 small chicken wings tonight. I also learned a valuable lesson. If I try to drink and eat I will puke! Big time! I did half a shake instead.

Ok I'm still going... I'm loving this!!

I'm down another pound which makes for a total of 5 lbs since I started. Woo hoo!

The best part was I was about a week into a complete stall. Well- that's over now!! I'll probably go for at lest 4 more days.

Thank you @@Elode!!! I owe you BIG time!!!

      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!
