I only have to do liquids the day before my surgery so I escape the 2 week liquid diet :) I have been doing 2 Protein Shakes a day for a few weeks already (mon-fri) and will probably just do it all 7 days those last 2 weeks.

Oh good for you! Do you have kids? Married? I have a 4,7 & 9 yr old. My hubby & I aren't sure if were going to tell them & if we do, how we are...thank God, that's my main concern @ this point & time.

I am married and have 2 kids - 6 and 9. We just told them last night because my 9 year old has been asking about why I am seeing so many doctors. He was starting to get nervous that there was something wrong with me - and I had planned on telling him anyway (although I would have rather waited until insurance approval went through first). I just told them that Mommy was going to a lot of doctors so that I can make sure I'm healthy enough for surgery. The surgery is going to help me lose weight and be healthier. We then explained that I will be sore for a little while, and that I will be eating differently for a while - but that the results will be worth it.

I do like that if we decide. Aren't you so excited about being so much more active w/them?

Also, I've been YouTube addicted w/hearing stories & seeing peoples progress. I think I'll def do a progression slideshow to contribute back but not sure of a vlog yet. My husband plans on having it shortly after so we have a lot going on.

My surgery is scheduled for March 16th AT UCLA. I've had my Psych evaluation, my blood work and an EKG done, plus a few classes at the hospital. Really excited about it! I've lost 13 pounds on my own so far with a 1200 calorie diet. It would be nice to have a FB page for March Sleevers :)

      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!
