Congratulations!!! Quick question. Is insurance requiring the 30 days liquid diet for you? Its usually 2 weeks here...30 days is long time



I have to do a 30 day liquid diet... not looking forward to it! 30 days of Protein Shakes and raw veggies only! It's not my insurance that made me do it, it's my doctor due to my high bmi

It's standard to do the pre-op liquid diet for 4 weeks in Sweden.
It's going to be tough but I'm so excited to finally have the surgery!

Mines May 14th in Mexico. Did my research and spoke to someone else that when to the same place and it was actually easier to get in there in a good time frame rather there go through the health care system here. It may cost me but I am determined to use this as the tool it is meant to be and be able to do all the things you guys listed. Im glad there are so many people around the same time to experience this with.

You can totally do this! I read, if you get hungry is just to wash your hands. Washing your hands will reset your mind. =)

oh, I cant wait to be sleeved! I have been doing a tremendous amount of personal research on the topic of Laparoscopic sleeve surgery. I am learning that surgery is not the hard part. It is the after care that is the real mountain to climb. I understand the surgery analytically. It all makes sense. I have watched about 5 surgeries online on YouTube. My anxiety has dissolved. I am prepared mentally for the liquid stage and the soft stage. I understand that there will be a period when I will only have liquids, and I am ok with that. Actually I read that I can have sugar free Jello along with sugar free juices. I will need to sip the juice slowly. I love cranberry juice and they carry unsweetened at the store I go to. Jello is considered a liquid, that is my take on it anyway. Any thoughts would be appreciated.

      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.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!
