Today is the start of my two well pre op liquid diet. I have done shake diets before very successfully.... until I find good again!! I know what I'm up for and the headache started around 11am this morning. I've had loads of Water and my two shakes and one Optifast pudding. I've got a chalky mouth and my head is pounding. I once this would be the day one feelings and side effects... it will last about one week then I'll feel fine.

I'm excited I've started; the first day is always the hardest.

Need time now, just after 8pm after two hours relaxing in the pool. I love summer in Australia!!

I am sure it's withdrawl symptoms. I've had a crappy night sleep, and have the makings of another headache brewing. I'll be easy on myself today. My stepsons are home with me this week while hubby goes to work. They are fabulous kids and will be a great help.

Oh good god, the autocorrect mistakes....sheesh.

Two week pre op.

Find food again.

Day two, feeling not as headachy and haven't had any neurofen yet so that's a good sign. I've been on the ride on mower for a couple of hours in readiness for Christmas day, in the pool for a swim, fed the kids, they are in the pool now while I catch up on some me time. Yes, they are old enough to be unsupervised and are also surf lifesavers so quite safe in the water! 🙂

wow, you finished 2 shakes? I'm 2 days shy of 3 weeks post op and I can't even finish a half of one. I wish!!

I'm 4 wks out and only 4 oz 3 x a day. No issues so probably try the whole 11oz this weekend.

      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.
