Well my weight problem has been a long and hard journey so it is exciting to think of all the possibilities with this surgery! I am ready to leave all the neagativity that came with obesity and finally make it over to the losers bench!

My surgery is tomorrow but I will be leaving today because I have a long way to drive! I am so excited, scared, and nervous...but overall happy to have made it this far!! When I started this journey, I never thought that it would actually happen, knowone believed in me, or supported me (I think they thought that I was bluffing). I did it though...I made it!!! I proved to everyone that I was serious, and I hope to someday soon become an inspiration to them to lose weight and to start living a healthier life!!

I just want to thank you all for being there, listening, helping, for sharing stories and information. You were the support that I needed when I wasn't able to get it elsewere, and I don't know if I would have made it this far without all of you!!

See you on the losers bench...sleeve sisters!!!

      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!
