Had the sleeve surgery on April 25th. I'm down to 238 from 277 clothes are falling off weather I want em to or not lol. I want boneless wings SOOOOOO bad. I'm contemplating going to watch the game but I know I'll have some. Dr still has me on the liquid diet. How long have you guys had to wait before returning to normal food ?

I'm 6 months post-op and chicken still kills my stomach.. no matter how it is prepared. It could be chicken flavored and it would make me sick :( I’m sad about it because I loved chicken before surgery. Just take it slow. My doctor tells me to wait a few weeks and try again on foods that don’t settle well.. but time and time again, the chicken doesn’t settle

I have to wait at least 36 days and then introduce one food 2 ozs at a time. But 2 weeks in, still no real hunger.

Don't give in to the temptation. Stay strong and keep to your diet. All the horror stories I've read and YouTube vids I've watched with people that slipped up and the agony they were in afterwords, Keep that in mind and hopefully it will help you make the right choices. Good luck and STAY STRONG!!!!

Two weeks on liquids followed by 4 weeks on pureed. It is going fine but I here you on the real food.

Don't do it, it sucks but trying something like that before you are healed enough is risky business. Hang in there, it's not like you will never eat wings again. Relax.

You should have been provided with an exact breakdown of when you can eat what... follow that.

If you weren't provided with one, reach out to your nutritionist and/or your surgical team and get that information ASAP. You **REALLY** need to follow the post op guidelines to ensure you heal correctly... you don't want to jeopardize your whole journey by not following the rules and regulations you've been provided. Remember, this is a massive change that will effect the rest of your life, make sure you do it right the first time or you'll end up having to get revision surgery down the road. Speaking from personal experience here.

      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.
