Can't believe it's been 4 weeks already. I'm feeling good, with the exception of a cold or allergies. (can't tell which one it is...maybe both)but the great news is that I'm down 19.5/20 lbs since surgery (50 lbs total) and I am so grateful for this. I haven't felt this good in years...The sleeve is definately the tool that gives one a new lease on life when used properly. With a very slow metabolism,(almost backwards, as my primary care Dr. stated) I'm looking at a slower, but steady progressive downward slope, which is just fine with me :) It's exciting :thumbup:to be back participating in life once again, rather than just exsisting in it!!!:biggrin0: Here's wishing everyone a wonderful and beautiful day!!. Talk later, Bye

Congratulations on a great first month! I completely understand about the almost backwards metabolism. That's why my primary doctor recommended WLS to me. I hope your second month is just as exciting!

Congrats! Slow and steady - that has been my routine so far. Not huge exciting numbers but progressive and I am happy with that.

The time certainly does go fast! Glad you are feeling so well : )

      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.

      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!
