I started liquids yesterday and am still tweaking the plan. I am more hungry today than yesterday though, I think I need to reschedule when I drink my Protein. I think my secret is going to have to be keeping very busy for the next 5 days. I'm not nearly as anxious as I was and this support group is wonderful. It really helps to share the journey.

I am on June 6th and my bmi is low so I don't have to do the liquid diet thank god. I am getting a little nervous as ive never had surgery before, well except for my tonsils out when I was young.

When on a mobile phone tickers can't be seen nor added from the app.

Ok, so in addition to it being my birthday today, its also the 1st day of my pre-op liquid fast! Everyone is bringing me cupcakes but I cannot partake! LOL...but seriously, I'm a bit grumpy today perhaps from not eating, and the caffeine withdrawal headaches are constant!


Well, my goal is in sight, my VSG is this coming Monday, June 6! Keep a good thought going for me guys...will keep you updated!

Mine is Monday too, and I'm doing ok on the liquid diet. I'm finding the secret is to add Protein Powder to everything. It's keeping me from getting hungry. And I try to stay as busy as possible so I don't have time to think about it. You and the rest of us on liquids will survive. ????

Just scheduled today for June 8, next Wednesday.

Where do you find the "tickers"?

My surgery is Monday as well. So far just coffee and Protein shake. Am very nervous but will try to keep busy, as well. Am making my own chicken broth. My coworkers gave me a beautiful bouquet of flowers and a card, which was so nice. I started all this in January...I can't believe it's finally here!

      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?
