Excited About Getting Sleeved!



Recommended Posts

Hello. I am new to the site. That's why I have no pic yet but I'll be putting one up soon. But I digress. I am so happy!! I got a call from my surgeon's office today asking me to pick a surgery date!!! I haven't gotten insurance approval yet but I am praying that things will be in my favor. I love that there is a place for people to share their experiences.

Talk to you all a little later!!!!

Welcome!!! We are so glad you choose to join us. A lot of us had our surgeries outside the United States, so don't have a support group to attend. This site takes the place of a support group for many of us (me included!) Also this site has to have the most loyal, enthusiatic group of encouragers anywhere on the planet! It is full of terriffic people who offer help, encouragement, advice, prayers, whatever is needed. It is a place to ask questions, address concerns and just vent frustrations. We are so glad you are here!

So did you pick a date for the surgery? How soon? Be sure and keep us posted so we can follow your progress!

Looking forward to hearing more from you!

      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!
