So, my surgery is scheduled for July 11th! Scared to death, but ready for the life change! I have been overweight almost my whole life and it has been a journey to get to where I am at now! It has taken almost 2 years to get here! Anyone else July bypass? If you are, how long of a liquid diet do you have to do pre-op? Mine is 2 weeks!!

If you have already had your surgery and gone through the liquid diet, any advise to get through it!

I am on day 8 of my 14 day liquid diet. My surgery is next Monday, Julu 2nd. I'm terrified and excited too. The diet has been hard. Not gonna lie, I had a few bits of turkey sausage on day 5. I'm only allowed Protein Drinks, SF Jello, SF popsicles, and broth. But I've lost 14lbs in one week. It's kinda crazy. Good luck on everything!!

That is all I am allowed too! I started mine a few days early to kind of see how things go and if I need to change when I do stuff. So, first day has been a little rough!!!

Good luck on your surgery!!!!

      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!
