So today I start my Pre OP. After impressing my nutritionist with what I know, she sent a list of must not have. Many things are what I see PpL with in their shopping guides. She however reminded me I'm on an Island so no Powerade zero, artificial sweeteners at all as fresh coconut Water is available. Additionally no store bought Soup or stock. So this weekend I'm making stock for my Soups, making 2 different kinds of soups, and I already stocked up on coconut water.

My pre op is 2 shakes, 1 solid meal, with lean Protein, complex carb and vegetables. , I fruit and non fat dairy. Teas are allowed. Cooked vegetables 1 cup but unlimited raw.

Let the journey begin

May I ask what brand of coconut Water you use? I've been looking but most seem pretty high in sugar. I really like the idea of moving away from artificial sweeteners .

Follow up question: For those of you who have had RNY, how much sugar will cause dumping?

Hey

I live in Jamaica, so coconut Water is freshly bottled, no additives at all. Not the canned or boxed stuff. I also just buy coconuts

Ok so I'm so jealous. I just got back from Jamaica on vacation and can't wait to go back. Everyone is so nice there!

That stinks that you can't get Powerade Zero, I live on that stuff. Are there any companies that ship grocery type items there? I know there are lots of different hydration alternatives so I'm wondering if there is something you could find that would comparable.

Wow, jealous of the fresh coconut Water --- the bottled stuff is just not the same.

      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!

        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.

      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!
