Ta been almost 24 hrs since my sleeve. Here's a quick update.

Last night was pretty rough with nausia most of the night and into this morning. Turns out it was "motion" nausia and once they treated that it swim s to be subsisting. I'm now walking 3 laps every 30 mins. Things seem to be progressing well.

Excellent! I was sleeved on 03/13/2013 in Baton Rouge at OLOL by Dr. Brent Allain who is in my opinion the best in the buisness.

Let's keep in touch. I am a die hard LSU fan as I can see you are too. I would be more than happy to answer any questions you may have.

I have lost nearly 60lbs in 7 weeks!

That's right! Walk, walk, walk! : ) My biggest complaint was burping up the trapped gas. The infant gas drops mylicon helps. I stayed 24 hours in hospital alone and it was no fun but all the discomfort will soon pass and you will be feeling great very soon. WTG! Congrats!

Thank You! I was determined to take this to a whole new level. This has been a huge blessing to have this opportunity that I see so many are having complications with insurance to have done.

It feels so good to have given away 3 and 4X shirts. Dropped 2 pants sizes. Had to cut my belts shorter. My barber did not recognize me when I walked in Thursday.

      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!
