There are several on You Tube. Check out Kellawanda.

I can tell you I started out at 241lbs and I'm 5'6". As of this morning I am 2 pounds from my goal, which I am hoping to reach before my 35th birthday which is about 2 weeks away. If you have any questions, I would be glad to answer anything.

Good Luck on Your Journey!!!

Nichole

Congrats on getting sleeved. How is it going with your sleeve?

It's going alright. I'm testing it more than I should. But I'm getting used to it... I'm in the full liquid stage now. Have another week to go.

i have not thrown up at all (except for the day after surgery, but that had nothing to do with eating, it was just nausea from the anesthesia). and the only time i have discomfort is when i try and eat more than a bite or two of solid food. i imagine it's just because it's still early and my healing stomach prefers the liquids.

That is good to know. I get nervous about vomiting and the nausea. I'm such a baby :)

Hi! I'm Jenny and I'm 24 years old. I had surgery on 3/19/12 and I'm feeling really good. My starting weight was 246 and I'm down to 228! 18lbs in 3 weeks and 2 days!!! That is very good encouragement for me and tells me that I'm finally going to beat this battle. Good luck with your journey:-)

      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!
