Do your best. Best to follow your own surgeon's rules. Good luck to you...and I feel your pain.

Do you have to follow it. And can you cheat? Are you serious? Yes go ahead and cheat they will open you up find your liver is too big and close you back up lol. It's happened to people. I followed the same plan was easier after first week. I assume you are in UK ? Never seen that plan in America.

No she wouldn't be the first. She also wouldn't be the first to wake up after being put under to find out they didn't have surgery. Good your surgery went well and yes we are all human but to be sure and also about being able to stick to something to prepare you for the liquid diet after it's best to not have plans of cheating in mind because alot of people can't get back on the wagon as you did

Follow your surgeon's diet. If I did my math right, that's about 60g of Protein, which is what my target is, too. And the carbs are limited, which is appropriate. My surgeon is having me drink Protein Shakes, which are expensive. Milk is much cheaper.

      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?

        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.
