6 more days until surgery I got on the SCALE Question



Recommended Posts

My official started date of pre op diet was July 13, so far down 21lbs. I'm happy my goal is to lose 10lbs in 6 days. I think I can do it with liquids and a little excercise. My doctor didn't want me to gain weight. Does anybody have a goal to reach in there Pre op diet? Or do your doctor have goal for you?

Not really but he said he'd be able to tell how compliant I was. Maybe by the state of my liver? I expect I'll lose weight on my presurgical diet, believe you me, my BMI is high enough that presurgical Weight loss would be a blessing.More worried about me staying healthy and hydrated.๐Ÿ˜›๐Ÿ‘ฃ๐Ÿ˜›

I understand I think if I would have stayed at my same weight 338 he would cancel my surgery. Now I'm 315 as of this morning 315. I'm trying my best to make sure I shrink my liver for a safety surgery. It's so hard being on this pre op diet. It's more of a mind thing for me. Do you have a surgery date?

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.ย  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.ย  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.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? Itโ€™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 Iโ€™m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      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.ย 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 โค๏ธย Together, we got this!
