Well guyz after all my whining and the 3 week setback we are good to go!!

I had my fianl appointment with the surgeon yesterday afternoon, and signed my conscent form for surgery.:thumbup:

I start my pre-op diet today :w00t: which consists of...

Full Fluids

70 grams of Protein

64 ounces of Fluid daily

800-1000 calories daily

low fat

0 sugar

as FEW carbs as possible

this times 11 days prior to surgery...

May 23-June 2 Surgery June 3

I will be Busy for most of the week I have to go pick my mom up from amtrack on Wed.

Be at middle school at 3:30am on Thurs.

New York Field trip Thur, Fri, Sat, get back in wee hours of Morning on Sun.

sleep and recover Sunday.

8th grade graduation on Monday

Surgery on Tuesday

The Field trip on the liquid diet may be tricky... so going to check out adkins shakes and low carb slimfast for that,

I am just looking forward to getting through this weekend to the Busy week and I think I'll be ok :blushing:

It still seems to good to be true... I know it's a tool and I have to do the work... I am just ready for a tool that will help me with the portion size and help me keep rolling with the motivation I have going now.

I know EVERYONE who knows me is ready for me to be done with this cause im so excited I almost can't stand myself:embaressed_smile:

Here's to a FAST 11 days!!

Kim,

I completely know what you mean about feeling it's too good to be true. I feel like i'm walking on a cloud all the time now and I can't really talk about it with anyone. Everyone that knows i'm going on a trip thinks I am going to a spa.. It was the quickest answer I could come up with.

I start my pre-op diet on Monday.

Happy Friday.

Olive

      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!
