My weight loss seems very slow compared to most people, but even if it is slowing down I have lost 3 dress sizes in one month, and it would have taken me much much longer without the assistance of the sleeve, and I would have eventually gained it all back plus some, which I hope won't happen this time around.

I certainly have no regrets.

Like everyone else said, my only regret is not getting the sleeve earlier. I'm 3 months out lost almost 50 pounds and feel real good. A day before and a few days after my surgery I was thinking I should not be doing this, but that is normal. I'm so glad I had the surgery and I'm sure you will too. Good luck

Not a single regret! Second best decision I ever made. (#1 was to have kids.)

No regrets!! I love my sleeve. The only regret I have is getting the lapband. I wish I would have just had just gotten the sleeve in the first place.

No regrets about the sleeve. I was a revision from the lapband - which is kin to a medieval torture device - so THAT I regret! The sleeve is amazing and I promise you won't regret it if you have it done.

Not one regret and I was a self pay in US. Okay I had one fleeting episode in front of a HomeStyle Buffet (of all places) crying over not being able to gorge. Wish I had cried over a good steak joint rather than the senior specials. :) You too will soon be here saying "no regrets". No more hungries all the time, no more stuffing myself only to still be hungry, no more hatred cycles. I love my sleeve!

Not for one single minute!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I wasn't crying going into the OR, I was like "let's get this going, I've been waiting so long to finally have something to HELP me lose the weight and keep it off!"

I love my sleeve!

6 months out, 100 lbs gone forever, finally into onderland which I haven't seen in YEARS. Regrets? That I wasted so many years in an unhealthy body. But no looking back - this summer I am going on a river trip, then this fall to ride in a hot air balloon in Sodona, on to the Grand Canyon and then up to Colorado for a zip line adventure - couldn't have even dreamed of doing these things 6 months ago!

      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!
