Help, two months or so to go before sleeved!



Recommended Posts

And I feel lika big, fat sausage.

I have gained 10 lbs since my band unfill the first of march,

and I am worried about what might happen before I get the surgery.

The doc has to remove my band(maybe week after next) wait 1-2 months for my stomach to heal, then i will get sleeved.

I dont want to put on another 10 or 20 lbs!

Maybe I should get some appetite supressants or something.

Blech,

Lisa

It is super frustrating. When I was waiting on my revision, I gained 16lbs pounds over 3 months. Totally frustrating, I still had my band, but no restriction, so I just ate more Protein than carbs until I had my food funeral then I eat anything and everything I wanted for about a week.

Thanks Tiffykins,you are always so positive.

A food funeral..how funny is that? Sounds like the pefect end to obesity-dom tho.

I read your story about your issues with getting sleeved, that must have been

so scary for you!

I look at your ticker all the time and take strength from it :-) Hopefully this time

for me passes quickly.

      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!
