I am so happy I got sleeved!



Recommended Posts

Hello all,

almost a year ago on June 25th I was sleeved in Mexico by Dr. Aceves.

I couldn't be happier! I have lost an amazing 95 pounds off my 5'3 frame!

I didn't have any complications other than frequent heartburn, but oh well!

Dr. Aceves and his staff were so wonderful, it was a great start to my journey.

I have been stuck, and am struggling to get to my personal goal of 100 pounds, I really wanted it by my 1 year surgiversary, so I'm increasing my Protein and exercise in hopes that I get closer to it.

Overall, I couldn't be happier with my choice!

Hang in there, you can do it!

You know, there are a few that have some short term goals... a few pounds before 100#, etc. Some are doing the 5DPT, what do you think of starting a thread and everyone who has a short term goal joining in?

Is that something folks would be interested in?

Congratulations on your success. I have no doubt you'll make all your goals and I look forward to following your progress.

How would you like it set up? Where would you like the threads? How do you want it set up? Do you want a thread for a 5DPT/Getting Back On Track?

Or do you want a subsection of short term and a subsection of long term goals?

Tell me how you would like to do it and I will.

(Actually, Elisabeth is a whole lot better at setting up subsections!)

      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?
