I don't start my liquid diet until Wednesday the 29th. Surgery is Tuesday the 5th! My BFF had hers on 6/21 and is home and doing great! I'm so excited to take this journey with her even if I'm a couple weeks behind....

I have a question, when you all speak of your "liquid diet" is that the two-week pre-op diet? Is it completely liquids only? I'm asking because the pre-op diet my doctor gave me is obviously mostly Protein shakes, but we are allowed to eat oatmeal, chicken, egg whites, vegetables. It is not all liquid.< /p>

Yes that is what everyone means. But not everyone is on just liquids. My doctor just requires me to have low carb.

Depends. At my previous attempt at VSG it was all liquids, between shakes and broth.

This attempt it is still mostly shakes, but plan allows for sugar free Jello, pudding, cream of what/oatmeal, light yogurt, and raw veggies.

As I've said before, you could create a book as deep as the Grand Canyon for how may different varieties of the pre-op diet there are.

      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.

        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!
