@@Elle09 I got through the day, thank you so much for asking, I appreciate it!

I haven't cheated at all yet. I'm so proud of myself.

I'm a supply teacher and didn't get any calls for the last 3 days so its just been me and my thoughts. I have work from tomorrow until my surgery on the 30th and I think keeping busy is going to really help me.

It's all worth it in the end right?

From toronto here and you are In The right place if you want people to be honest with you :). I had an rny in October. What you are going through with liquids is normal. The first week is the hardest, second is easier. I started my Vitamins in the preop phase which helped with energy.

Hello Megan

I have VSG surgery scheduled for January 23, which happens to be next Monday! I'm getting really nervous right now and not to mention I'm currently on the liver shrinking diet. It's getting real! My thoughts are:

"I hope this works for me "!

@@Yvette804 Best of luck on your surgery! How are you finding the diet? You are so close to surgery, congratulations!

With hard work, I'm sure this will work for you! I am currently having those thoughts as well! I'm struggling so much to get through the diet that I'm wondering if I was just meant to be morbidly obese forever.

Hi @Yvette804it's going well! I hit a plateau for a bit but that was my fault from eating foods that weren't as nutrious as I should have because of my grandmother becoming ill, ending up in hospice and ultimately her death the last week and a half. But with the help of my family I am back on track and still losing! 40 pounds down and I meet my surgeon on Tuesday and am looking forward to continuing on this journey

      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!
