I'm shooting for August, my husband and I both are getting the gastric sleeve. We've already been for all the required things before surgery. We go to the doctor on Thursday to schedule a date. He is going first and as soon as he is able to look after himself I will go. I'm so excited, I'm thrilled. I've overweight since I was in the second grade. All my life it's been on you have such a pretty face. I know people mean well but that was like spitting in my face. I'm 51 and I have fibromaylgia and some other health issues. I know getting off this weight will make me feel better all the way around. I guess next week we will be starting the pre-op diet. Good Luck on your surgery, will post when I know something.652

I have my pre-op testing July 20th. Once the tests are complete and sent to the MD, I can schedule my sleeve. I am hoping it will be August 8th. The doctor only does surgery on Mondays and Wednesdays. I have been approved by insurance. I am just waiting now. I can't wait. Good Luck to all!

      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!
