Pre-Op Diet, Are you hanging in there?



Recommended Posts

My official pre-op diet starts tomorrow, June 2nd, I started on May 31st to work the kinks out. So far so good for me but it's only day 3. Fortunately, I do not have to do a total liquid diet. Mine consists of very small meals and Snacks every 2 hours, starting from 7am-9pm.

How are you guys doing?

Just received notice my surgery date is rescheduled to June 23rd instead of June 17th. I am going to see if I can do the pre op diet for 3 weeks instead of 2 weeks. Lawd help me!

It seems everyone has a different pre-op diet. I started mine 6 days ago. I'm fine most of the day but I'm starving when I wake up so I might add a yogurt in the evening, but I've lost 4 lbs.

      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!
