Today, I had my 2nd visit at TLC Edge, and tomorrow I have my visit w/ my surgeon. I'll get my appt time for surgery and the chance to ask any questions.

I've been on my liquid diet for just over a week and by my scale I've lost almost 10 lbs. 212 the first day and 203.5 this morning. Of course, it was first thing in the morning and standin' neekid on the scale! :smile: My visit at TLC said that I'd lost only 7 lbs. I hope, by my scale that I get down 20 lbs.

We had a catered Breakfast this morning and boy did it smell good!! I so wanted to have some, but I didn't! Yea for me. My friend who is also banded told me, "Nothing tastes as good as skinny feels". She has some gems!!

:smile:

Boy that pizza in the dr.s office smelled good! I am SICK of this liquid diet......

I found out that I was going to be the first surgery of the day and I got pushed back to 12:30. While I understand why, I wanted to be home recovering instead of waiting...

:rolleyes2:

I think of preop diet as detox. That is what it felt like to me..It's always a pain waiting for that appointment time. Well look at it this way..either way by the end of the day..your starting your whole new part of your life! Good luck with everything!!!

      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!
