Someone in my FB group said that her surgeon did an internal stitch to help avoid a hernia and a pop could be felt when it breaks. It's supposed to break. Could be that!

How far out are you? I think less cleaning is in order

Don't trust the other end. 😜

My BFF is 8 months out and when I asked her about the burping she said "yes! Welcome to your new normal!"
I'm only 4 days out so burping is my greatest joy right now. My guess is that there isn't room in the sleeve for food and air, thus the burps!

Everyone who has responded to this thread tonight should be ashamed. ALL of you. Especially Lacecute, StartingFreshNana and Abeille. Who talks to people that way? I don’t care what somebody says to you, who says things like that? You should all 3 be banned from this site. This is shameful. I’m embarrassed to know I even joined this page. I had no idea it was like this.


As of October 12, 2017, I am 4 months post op and have lost 100 pounds. I have reached my goal weight and could not be more ecstatic!

If you are a psychologist, what you're doing here is unethical and actionable. You're making evaluative statements under the umbrella of your professional expertise that are damning, based on information posted on an anonymous peer support forum, where you have not formed a client/professional relationship. Please discontinue, or I will push for you to be banned from the forum (and I encourage you to seek peer supervision on your conduct).

Yeah my next stop maybe a dermatologist. I just hate feeling this way honestly.

Wow that's so great!

That wait is the worst! Hope all goes well for you!!!

I started my diet and exercise before I started The weight loss surgery process. I was 557 lbs. in May 2016 and I got down to 450 lbs. when I did start my weight loss surgery process in May 2017. I finally had my sleeve on December 5th 2017 and I was 381 lbs. today January 17th 2018 I am down to 355 lbs. so I started off at 557 lbs. and today I am 355 lbs.

Lots of us going in tomorrow!!!! Good luck to everyone. I'm beyond excited to get this started! Prayers to everyone getting sleeved this week!

Thanks for recommending Clusie! I've been watching her everyday for a month now. She's great. And I need Robert Earl! [emoji76]

Good luck everybody, both for today and tomorrow! Looking forward to hearing how it all went for us. Xx

Good luck to everyone going in today and soon! I am a week out and can tell you will feel great by the time you hit one week!

I called the doctors office and left a message through the answering service. The on call dr called me back. He is going to try to direct admit me tomorrow. He said I probably need the upper GI done and will see about putting a camera in to see what is going on.

I love Hint Water. Just enough fruit flavor to make it interesting without using artificial sweetener. The blackberry and the watermelon are particularly tasty but they are all good.

I have nothing useful, I'm sorry but just wanted to send hugs and prayers. I hope things improve soon. I am a stay at home mom of 4 and couldn't imagine trying to juggle that and work with so much pain, discomfort and low energy.

That's what I am thinking as well. 400lbs to 200lbs would leave anyone with excessive skin. 400lbs to 122lbs would be enough excess skin to cover another person. Hell, you could make a leather vest and chaps out of that much excess skin!
