I was sleeved on 2/6 also. Feeling ok, learning what I can and cannot drink, but having a horrible constant gas like pain right in the middle of my chest. I'm calling my dr today since it's becoming bothersome.

So far I've had blended Soup, cream of chicken, cream of wheat Cereal, fauxsagna (ricotta cheese sprinkled with garlic with a spoon of spaghetti sauce on top) and half an ounce of 50x chewed scrambled eggs.

I can barely take a few bites of any one thing, but the cream of wheat went down SOOOO well!

Had my 1st post op visit today and got the dang drain out! soooo glad of that. No problems so far, been able to drink good and started full liquids yesterday.

Dr, said everything is looking good! He did send me to have a CBC and a UA though since my pulse was high and my temp was 99.2. They were fine though I think I was just nervous to have the drain out LOL

With the preop and post op weight loss I"m down #15... so that works for me, wish it was more but hey it will keep going down...and I will be where I wanna be in no time :) keeping my eye on the prize !

Hi. I go for my check up tomorrow. I hope he takes the drain out!!! I'm on 2 Optifast shakes a day plus Jello, broth, and Water. Can't wait to try new foods. I was sleeved also on the 6th. Everything went great except I got a urinary tract infection. I have never had one before. Great luck to everyone!!!!

      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!
