I feel BLESSED!!!!



Recommended Posts

4 weeks ago today I was being checked into the hospital. I was apprehensive, but confident in my decision to have the sleeve. I knew this was what had to happen in order for me to get my life back. I was tired

of dieting and pretty much resigned myself to being OVERWEIGHT,OBESE, MORBIDLY OBESE. Then I found this tool and I am working it to the fullest.

At the present time I have lost a total of 46 pounds which started on Aug. 3rd {pre op diet for 2 weeks}. So that's like a little more than 1 pound a day. WOO HOO!!!! :thumbup::w00t:

I love this tool, I LOVE MY SLEEVE!!!!! One of the best things to happen to me ever. I FEEL TOTALLY ABSOLUTELY BLESSED. GOD IS GOOD!!!! PEACE.

It is truly a blessing to be able to feel so good about the sleeve, your body, the changes, the whole process! I understand what you are feeling, things that you probably never felt prior to the surgery. It is like being given a second chance to have a life you should have had all along. Grats on your weight loss as well.

Amen! Isn't he? I remember the first things out of my moms mouth after she watched me stop breathing during my first pre op, they led her back into the room and she says praise god, god is good she said she was down the hall pacing and thanking god for what he was already doing for me.

I went back I had the surgery I have hit some mental rough spots but now I know things are exactly how they were meant to be.

Amen is right! I am so happy for you and can't help but think of the people who aren't able to have this surgery. It is certainly a blessing for those who benefit from it!

      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!
