Date Change, And A Family Affair



Recommended Posts

Well, I have moved up my date to June 11th! Also, along with my aunt (whom I love and adore) my cousin (aunts daughter) is being sleeved as well! Im so blessed to have the love and support of my family, and to have them be my sleeve sisters and support means so much! Dr Kelly should give me a kickback for btinging in two extra people lol. Im so glad that they agree that Dr Kellys expertise is second to none! Im so excited to be in Tj when my sleeve buddly Delby is having her surgery. Cant wait!

Wow, that's a great testament to his credentials! Less than two months for me and the family, we are anxious, nervous, and excited!

Man I am so there with you guys! Cathy and I text daily and keep each other motivated. I had a moment of "I don't wanna do this!" the night before last but it passes. I've also been texting another lady who just had her surgery on Wed. and she's doing very well (not by Dr. K, but up in Missouri) and sharing her experience with me.

I've got the countdown on my iphone so I know exactly how much longer the wait is... :)

      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!
