Did anyone go through nesting before surgery? You would think I'm bringing a baby home. It's not even noon. I've washed clothes, cleaned bathrooms, cleaned the fridge, washed dishes, washed and deep conditioned my hair, finished prepping my mini fridge... About to mop and vaccum.

I "nested" before my 1st attempt (surgery aborted) because I didn't want to risk getting sick by going out and about. So I stayed home during my 2 week pre-op diet to minimize my exposure to potential germs. I also did some Soup prep and ordered stuff I needed, so that I was prepared.

Now when I go for my 2nd attempt I plan to do the same. Don't want to risk getting sick and delayed further than I already was/am. So I will prep what I can and just relax and stay away from people to reduce my risk exposure.

Good luck @@Womanvsmirror!!

Yes over the past 3 weeks I've been extremely anti-social trying to avoid germs

I have got through a bunch ( BUNCH) of clothes I keep in bins ( previous sizes ) and my closet which has clothes I wear That fits and some that are 10 lbs away that I cannot wear .... I got rid of three full bins of clothes I have always hated but kept hold of because I thought I needed them

And then I washed all clothes from 28, 26 and 24 ( only favorites) and put them in my closet , ready ...... It was awesome . I cannot wait! It was better than thinking about eating or worrying about my 5 yr olds developing cough

I nest literally every month... i did yesterday... i literally clean the house from top to bottom... for me its a hormonal thing... around 2-3 days before I'm due i nest like a crazy person!

I did the samething prior to surgery.. i cleaned the house... organised my filing and paperwork... cleaned up my computer, deleted and filed my inbox... went to the beautician to have everything erm.. groomed hehe... and even gave my family a verbal will. .. i think i went a little overboard though haha..

A couple months ago I went through allllll the clothes I had sized up and out of over the years. Donated a ton, but ended up optimistically setting aside about 3 bags full of favorites that I hope to fit into on my way back down after surgery!

Hello Womanvsmirror, We are Sleeve Sisters!!!! I have surgery on June 1st also! I have been keeping busy but not as busy as you. Doing this liquid diet is pushing me. How are you doing today?

      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!
