Anyone getting nervous like me? I am excited and nervous. Have not done to well on my 5 day pre-op diet. Gonna really hit it hard the next few days. How is everyone else doing? Did any one go out and stock up on your liquids?

Hi there,

My surgery is tomorrow morning, so I'm just a day ahead of you. I went out this weekend and stocked up on liquids. I live alone and the only thing I have yet to do is clear out my refrigerator, which I guess I can do either tonight or when I get back home.

I'm super excited :thumbup: and slightly nervous :wink2:, but I guess that comes with the territory. I'm not really nervous about the procedure itself, more so about the post-op liquid diet as I haven't had to be on a pre-op diet of any kind. I'm hoping I won't be starving since that's difficult for me to cope with.

All things said, I'm so excited to start this journey and begin the rest of my life on a healthy path. No more putting things off until I'm more comfortable with my outer self! This is truly a time of change and I for one, can't wait to get started!!! :rolleyes:

Good luck on your journey,

Nat

WOW tomorrow. Good luck to you. I am freaking out I was up all night reading the posts on after lap band removal. Reading about all the people that had to have them removed and why. I have never read those before. I really hope it all goes well. But now I am worried about what if I am one of those who only loses 10 in 4 months? Or has reflux. Or is sick all the time. I was so excited now I am worrying about everything and wondering if I have made the right decision. :smile2:

      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!
